RANGPUR, Sept 5, 2025 (BSS) - Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami executive council member ATM Azharul Islam has said the July Charter must be given a legal basis to ensure the rights of the people.
 
"The people's participation in the development activities of this fascism-free country, which was achieved at the cost of the blood of thousands of young people, must be ensured to build a new Bangladesh in the spirit of the July Uprising," he said.
 
ATM Azhar said this while speaking as the chief guest at two separate street rallies organized by Madhupur Union Jamaat-e-Islami in the Balapara Mour Bazar area and in the Pakarmatha Bazar area under Badarganj upazila of Rangpur this evening.
 
ATM Azharul Islam, also a Jamaat-e-Islami nominated candidate for the 13th national election from Rangpur-2 Badarganj-Taraganj constituency, said the change in the fate of people is not possible without the implementation of Islamic law. 
 
"To establish Islamic law on this land, all patriotic and honest citizens must gather under the flag of Islam to build a corruption-free humane society according to the provisions of Al-Quran," he said. 
 
He said, "If I am elected, not a single penny of your deposit will enter my pocket. If you vote for an honest person, the area will develop with honesty and integrity."
 
Madhupur union Jamaat-e-Islami President Mohammad Abdul Quddus presided over the programme.
 
Badarganj upazila Jamaat-e-Islami Ameer Moulana Kamruzzaman Kabir, upazila Nayebe Ameer Shah Mohammad Rostam Ali and upazila Secretary Prof Moulana Minhajul Islam addressed the rallies as special guests.
