The Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) will hold its final election rally on Sunday, February 8, in the capital ahead of the 13th National Parliamentary Election and Referendum, scheduled for February 12.
The rally will take place at 2:00pm in front of the party’s central office in Nayapaltan, BNP Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi Ahmed said on Thursday.
He shared the details with reporters after a joint meeting at the Nayapaltan office, adding that all preparations have been completed to ensure the success of the rally.
BNP Chairman Tarique Rahman will address the gathering as the chief guest, while BNP candidates from Dhaka and nearby areas will also be present.
Expressing hope for a peaceful election, Rizvi said voters should be able to cast their votes freely and without fear.
He said BNP has always come to power with the support of the people and claimed that the party has remained strong despite facing repression.
“The people of the country see the sheaf of paddy not just as a symbol, but as an emotion. With that spirit, people will cast their votes on February 12,” Rizvi said.
