DHAKA, Feb 6, 2026 (BSS) - Ameer of Islami Andolan Bangladesh, Charmonai Pir Mufti Syed Muhammad Rezaul Karim today said his party ensured the safety of minority communities across the country following the August 5 unrest.
He made the remarks while addressing an election rally of Islami Andolan Bangladesh at the open stage of Amtali Municipality in Barguna-1 constituency.
"Many have spoken of building a Golden Bangladesh, Green Bangladesh or Digital Bangladesh. Without such slogans, we will work to bring smiles to the faces of 18 crore people, Insha Allah," he said, calling on voters to support the party's 'hat pakha' election symbol.
Expressing optimism about the electoral prospects in Barguna-1, Charmonai Pir said his confidence was strengthened through discussions with local residents, party leaders and activists.
He urged party activists to continue election activities peacefully and cautioned against any attempt to create violence or disrupt the polling process.
Reiterating his party's stance, he assured minority communities, including Hindus, Christians and Buddhists, that Charmonai remains a safe place for them.
Speaking at the rally, Islami Andolan's Barguna-1 candidate Maulana Mahmudul Hossain Waliullah said he aims to serve the people, not rule them. He pledged to prioritise sustainable development, education, employment, healthcare, and flood and river erosion management in the district.
The rally was attended by Senior Islami Andolan leaders, including Presidium members Professor Ashraf Ali Akon and Professor Mahbubur Rahman, central assistant-publicity and Dawah Secretary Maulana K.M. Shariatullah and other local leaders.
