31-point framework for reconstructing the state on democratic principles: Hasan Uddin Sarkar

Reiterating the dedication to execute the 31-point state framework, BNP central leader and former MP, the courageous freedom fighter Hasan Uddin Sarkar stated, "This battle to preserve democracy and reconstruct the state has transcended mere political demands; it has evolved into a struggle for the people's survival."

He made this remark while serving as the chief guest at a view-sharing meeting hosted by Ward No. 53 BNP and its affiliated organizations at the Ahsan Ullah Sarkar Islamic Foundation Auditorium in Tongi Baro Deora on Wednesday afternoon. The meeting was chaired by Gazipur Metropolitan BNP leader Haji Babar Ali and facilitated by Azizul Haque Raju Master, the former Publication Affairs Secretary of Metropolitan BNP.

In his address, Hasan Uddin Sarkar remarked, "The 31-point program is not merely a political initiative; it serves as a blueprint for reconstructing the state on democratic principles. Our objective is to restore the people's voting rights, guarantee judicial independence, provide security for citizens, and eradicate economic disparity. Although this journey is lengthy, the populace stands with us, as demonstrated by the fact that fascist oppression could not withstand the people's strength." He further emphasized, "The organization must be fortified at the grassroots level throughout the nation. We need to enhance our engagement with the populace in every locality, city, suburb, and ward. The solidarity of our workers and supporters is our most significant asset. We are undeterred by political retribution, fabricated cases, or assaults, as our dedication to the people's aspirations and democracy remains steadfast."

Abdur Rahim Khan Kala, the former office secretary of Gazipur Metropolitan BNP, addressed the meeting as a special guest. He stated, "Propaganda cannot prevail against those who hold a place in the hearts of the people. Hasan Uddin Sarkar is in good health. During the previous fascist regime, he sustained a leg injury during an attack on a procession, and due to improper treatment, he now faces permanent issues, which necessitate his use of a wheelchair.

Aside from this, he does not suffer from any physical ailments. The misinformation being circulated about him is intentional."

Additionally, the former Industrial and Labor Affairs Secretary of Gazipur Metropolitan BNP, Haji Mojibul Haque Dulal, along with former Labor Affairs Secretary Md. Nabin Hossain, former Metropolitan BNP member Md. Ataur Rahman Atiq, former Religious Affairs Secretary Dr. Abdus Samad Chowdhury, joint conveners of the Metropolitan Jubo Dal Sheikh Sumon and Md. Habibur Rahman Azad, Ward 55 BNP President Mohammad Zahirul Islam, former general secretary of Ward 43 BNP Mahbub Alam, BNP leader Saiful Islam Shahin, Purba Thana Jassas member secretary Md. Russell, and Ward 49's former office secretary Md. Sohel Chowdhury.

During the meeting, the leaders urged for an increased effort towards party unity and the democratic movement, emphasizing that the execution of the 31-point plan reflects the aspirations of the people.
