No matter how much evil forces or collaborators of fascism conspire, the people of the country will not accept them any more, BNP acting secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi has said.
Rizvi was speaking at the party’s central office in Naya Paltan on Wednesday. He said that if attempts are made to bring them back through any invisible interference, they will get no international support.
He also recalled a remark by the Awami League government’s law minister: fugitives do not get legal assistance. According to Rizvi, the constitution has not given them the opportunity to return because of their involvement in anti-human rights activities.
The BNP acting secretary general alleged that an evil force has set out to artificially worsen the country’s law and order situation.
Background
According to a Dhaka Times report of 20 August 2026, BNP nominated standing committee member Ruhul Kabir Rizvi as acting secretary general that day under Section 7(kha)6 of the party constitution.
According to a Jugantor report, earlier, right after submitting his nomination papers for president to the Election Commission on 13 August, Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir quit the posts of the party’s secretary general and standing committee member; the post had been vacant since then.
