"Today's barbaric attack on the NCP's pre-announced programme in Gopalganj, the explosion of cocktails, arson attacks on the vehicles of the UNO and law enforcement agencies, and the brutal injuring of police personnel are manifestations of that very subversive activity," he added.

Fakhrul issued this statement following an attack today after an NCP rally in Gopalganj's Poura Park area. The attack was allegedly carried out by members of the banned Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL)

Fakhrul said there is no alternative but to suppress these miscreants with a firm hand.

"To protect democracy and people's right to vote, and to prevent the rise of fascism once again in the country, people from all walks of life, regardless of party or ideology, must remain united to safeguard the lives and property of the citizens. Otherwise, the country will once again face threats to its independence and sovereignty," he added.
