DHAKA, Nov 26, (2025) - BNP Acting Chairman Tarique Rahman today said Shaheed Dr Shamsul Alam Khan Milon was a fearless soldier in the movement to restore democracy.
In a message marking the 'Shaheed Dr Milon Day', he said, "The ultimate sacrifice made by brave Shaheed Dr Milon in the movement to restore democracy revitalized the lost democracy. Through his self-sacrifice, the nine-year-long anti-Ershad autocratic movement for democracy surged towards its final victory."
The BNP Acting Chairman said, "Dr Milon's firm commitment was to overthrow the autocracy and re-establish the democratic rights of the people. He brought about the victory of democracy through the sacrifice of his blood. This path led to the fall of the autocracy in the country and the re-establishment of democracy. A new journey of democracy began under the leadership of the national leader, Begum Khaleda Zia."
Tarique Rahman paid deepest respects to the memory of Shaheed Dr. Shamsul Alam Milon and said: "I pray for the salvation of his departed soul."
Mentioning the activists of fascist Awami League regime, he said, "During the past 16 years of unbearable rule by the deposed Awami government, all rights of the people were snatched away and democracy was buried. The people of the country lost all their rights. The ownership of the country was taken away from the citizens."
"Although we have achieved a new kind of freedom through the victory of the unified movement of students and the public on August 5, 2024, the domestic and foreign conspiracies against our motherland have not stopped. However, if we remain united, the conspirators will never succeed. The self-sacrifice of Shaheed Dr Milon will always inspire us," he added.
