Fakhrul urges ‘Yes’ vote in referendum supporting state reforms

BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir has called on the public to vote “Yes” in the upcoming referendum to support state reforms, saying the vote will determine whether the country moves toward change or continues on its old path.

“The central question of this referendum is simple—who wants reform and who does not,” Fakhrul said. “Those who ran the country the way it was have fled. To fix the country, reforms are essential, and this referendum is meant to decide that. Those who want reform should vote ‘Yes,’ and those who do not should vote ‘No.’ We want reforms, so we urge everyone to vote ‘Yes.’”

He made the remarks at a roadside rally in the Galim Babur Hat area of Jagannathpur union in Thakurgaon-1 constituency on Sunday morning.

Addressing members of the Hindu community, Fakhrul said he would always stand by them and assured that no one would be allowed to harm them.
