BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia on October 16 laid stress on holding a rally on the Eid day in which she may announce the next course of action to realise the demand for reinstating the caretaker government system.
“Nobody has any right to stop us from holding the rally. The government must let us hold it and it will be surely held,” she said, adding that everyone has the right to organise rallies.
Dhaka city BNP on October 10 sought permission from the authorities for holding the rally, proposing three venues — Suhrawardy Udyan, Paltan grounds or in front of the BNP office.
The leader of the opposition was addressing journalists while exchanging Eid greetings with envoys of different countries, eminent citizens and people from all walks of life at Bangabandhu International Conference Centre at Sher-e-Bangla Nagar in the capital.
“This is not acceptable that they (the government) will be able to hold rallies but we will not,” she said, adding that this country does not belong only to the government or any individual.
Khaleda called upon the Awami League-led government to create an environment through dialogues in order to hold a free, fair and participatory election.
“We do not want any unrest and violence in the country. We want holding of a free and fair election under a non-party neutralgovernment with participation of all parties,” she said, reports BSS.
She also said the government move to hold a one-sided election would not be acceptable both in the country and abroad.
“We have said that we will not participate in a one-sided election,” Khaleda said.
She promised to reinstate peace and order in the country if the government accepts her party’s demand for reinstating the caretaker government system.

Former vice-chancellors of Dhaka University Prof Maniruzzaman Miah and Prof Emaz Uddin Ahmed, Prof Sadrul Amin, and president of a faction of Dhaka Union of Journalists poet Abdul Hye Shikdar were present, among others.
