Youth Rally in Terkhada, Khulna
On Sunday afternoon, BNP joint secretary Habib un-Nabi Khan (Sohel) attended a youth rally organized by Terkhada Upazila Jubo Dal at the field of Ekri Katenga Fazlul Haque Model Secondary School.
Habib un Nabi Khan’s Statement
He warned,
‘যদি কখনো জামায়াতে ইসলামী ক্ষমতায় আসে, তবে মুসলমান হতে হলে তাদের কাছ থেকে সার্টিফিকেট নিতে হবে।’
Translation: If Jamaat ever comes to power, to be a Muslim, one would need a certificate from them.
He also criticized Jamaat’s alignment with foreign powers, saying,
‘জামায়াত বিদেশি শক্তিকে খুশি করতে দলীয় লোগো পর্যন্ত পরিবর্তন করেছে। এভাবে চলতে থাকলে তারা একদিন হাফপ্যান্ট পরেও ঘুরবে।’
Translation: Jamaat has even changed its party logo to please foreign powers. At this rate, one day they might even walk around in half-pants.

On the Liberation War and Voting Rights
Referring to the Liberation War, he questioned,
‘যারা মুক্তিযোদ্ধাদের হত্যা করিয়েছে, মা-বোনকে হানাদার বাহিনীর হাতে তুলে দিয়েছে, তারা জাতির কাছে ক্ষমা না চেয়ে কী মুখে ভোট চায়?’
Translation: Those who killed freedom fighters and handed over mothers and sisters to the enemy forces, how can they ask the nation for votes without seeking forgiveness?
“ব্যবসায়ী, ক্যারিয়ার বিল্ডার বা মার্কেটার—সবার জন্য এক রোডম্যাপ ! ক্লিক করুন এখানে…”
