“That leader said Jamaat-e-Islami does not want reforms and that Jamaat did not play any role in the dialogue on reform and a new constitution. But in fact, we were the first to submit a full report containing six reform proposals to the (National) Consensus Commission. They want us to criticise them (as) no one even mentions their name. When people talk about a big party like Jamaat, a few might mention them,” he told the rally.
“We don’t take you that seriously yet. Don’t start criticising us as yet; you have a long road ahead. You’re educated young people, and we pray for your success. You played a significant role in the 2024 mass uprising and made many sacrifices. You are July fighters — you have our respect and prayers. But when you speak the language of politics, do so as major political parties do. Using indecent, offensive, or non-political language does not befit any political leader,” Golam Porwar further said.
