“Ziaur Rahman’s philosophy, the ideology of Bangladeshi nationalism, can never be defeated,” Mirza Fakhrul remarked. “That is why the BNP, too, has never been defeated. Time and again, it has risen, like the phoenix from the ashes.”
Emphasising the significance of 7 November, the BNP secretary general said, “For us, and indeed for the entire nation, 7 November is a day of immense importance. Especially in today’s context, when people have fallen into uncertainty and despair, when every citizen is pondering what will happen and what may come next, the only way forward is to unite the nation.”
