Motherland is Tariq Rahman's only address


The 13th National Parliament Election will be held on February 12. If all goes well, BNP Acting Chairman Tarique Rahman will return to the country on December 25 after a long 17 years. His daughter Barrister Jaima Rahman will accompany him.

For some reason, not only BNP but also every household in the country is now buzzing with the news of Tarique Rahman's return to his homeland. The festive atmosphere has spread everywhere.

Tarique Rahman has decided to return home not only due to the pull of motherhood at Begum Khaleda Zia's critical moment, but also to thwart the various conspiracies of some circles with vested interests at the international level, focusing on Bangladesh.

According to political observers, political landscape of Bangladesh will change after Tarique Rahman return home. the organizational structure of BNP will become stronger. The election campaign will intensify. The position of BNP's dedicated leaders and activists will expand and strengthen. At the same time, there will be an end to all those irresponsible, alienated and low-quality politicians who have been in the political arena for political gains for so long.

Although Tarique Rahman is unbearable to these activist politicians, they are clinging to BNP to maintain their own existence at this moment. They have no other option but to remain under Tarique Rahman's shadow.

According to the relevant sources, Tarique Rahman will walk in the path of martyred President Ziaur Rahman. At this moment, Tarique Rahman is looking deeper into motherhood. Only he realizes how much pain Tarique Rahman, a symbol of nationalist power in Bangladesh, is in due to his mother's suffering. Selfless love for the country is alive in his every breath.

Meanwhile, after returning home, Tarique Rahman will have to keep a strict eye on party issues and avoid provocations from various quarters and take any decision calmly, in the light of his past experience, wisdom and foresight. Amidst his busy schedule, Tarique Rahman will have to keep a vigilant eye on some other issues.

Image recover

Tarique Rahman is practically the supreme leader of BNP at this moment. Even though he is in exile, the party is being run under his sole leadership. The work he is doing for the party is unbelievable. Tarique Rahman wants to bring qualitative changes in the future politics of Bangladesh. Those who are honestly supporting him will be the closest to Tarique Rahman in the coming days.

The concerted efforts of those who have questioned the image of nationalist Sipahsala Tarique Rahman through false propaganda in the past will not succeed again. In the coming days, Tarique Rahman has requested those self-interested groups to refrain from trying to achieve their own personal interests by talking about Tarique Rahman's "aspirations".

Determining electoral strategy

Tarique Rahman will now have to lead in various areas, including formulating BNP's manifesto as soon as possible, rearranging organizational responsibilities at the field level, resolving party conflicts, coordinating leaders and activists with candidates in each constituency, determining campaign strategies, and campaigning on constituency-based issues, focusing on the upcoming 13th National Parliament election.

Neutralize the administration

A political party is trying its best to use the administration and media in the upcoming 13th National Parliament elections. The BNP has not been able to do the same strategy of appointing its own people in the media and administration, and in a sense, it has not even tried to do so. The administration and media are still in the hands of Awami League and Jamaat.

It is worth noting that these two parties have a lot of influence in the Election Commission and the Bangladesh Secretariat. Besides, after Shibir won the university student council elections alone, they are desperate to win the national parliament elections as well. For this reason, the party is also carrying out various propaganda against Tarique Rahman.

Preventing the rehabilitation of autocratic groups

Despite openly opposing tyranny in the political arena, the religiously-based political party Jamaat-e-Islami is maintaining strict secrecy and providing shelter and facilities to the leaders and activists of the banned Awami League who are hiding in various places. On the contrary, they are trying to blame the BNP for any misdeeds. Many big leaders of BNP are also struggling with this cunning. Tarique Rahman must take a strong stand on this important issue.

Dealing with conflict

Meanwhile, Jamaat-e-Islami has announced a single candidate in the parliamentary seats ahead of the upcoming 13th National Parliament elections. On the other hand, in the seats where BNP has multiple candidates, they are trying their best to gain advantage by inciting the party's leaders and activists to create groupings and conflicts. Some greedy BNP leaders have fallen into this trap set by Jamaat and caused huge losses in the party's election campaign. This problem is now prevalent in every district. The banned Awami League is also stirring up trouble from behind.

Prevent hybrid leadership

Tarique Rahman's life has been scarred but his behavior has never been harsh. Despite enduring hundreds of blows, Tarique Rahman speaks softly. But the audacity of a party to criticize him in various ways is possible only because of some hybrid leader who is hiding in the party. They are continuing to portray Jamaat-e-Islami as a big party.

This group is unwilling to acknowledge the lack of proper planning and organizational weaknesses in BNP's election campaign. They have constantly misled the party high command by presenting incorrect and untrue information in party forums.

This is one of the many reasons behind Tarique Rahman's late return to the country. He has been able to understand many things while in London.

Countering the opponent's tactics

According to sources, Jamaat-e-Islami will spend a huge amount of money to win the elections. BNP does not have the amount of funds that Jamaat has. They are moving forward as per the party plan. Jamaat is not doing any kind of verification to put the responsibility of murder, fights and extortion on BNP. The party has created a chaotic situation on social media by opening different IDs. During the university elections, this social media was Jamaat's number one tool.

Their first plan in the national elections is to establish contact with social media and the poor and helpless people. BNP's media cell is still quite weak in front of Jamaat's media cell. Already, the elections of the National Press Club and Dhaka Union of Journalists have been postponed, citing Tarique Rahman. Pro-Jamaat leaders say that pro-BNP journalist leaders, who are afraid of losing the elections, have announced the postponement of the elections, citing Tarique Rahman. It is necessary to investigate whether this is also a trick of Jamaat. Because Jamaat will also issue this in the national parliament elections. In the meantime, they are also saying that fear has entered the BNP after losing the university elections. Therefore, now the elections of the National Press Club and Dhaka Union of Journalists have been postponed.

For relevant reasons, questions have arisen among BNP's grassroots leaders and activists that the very Jamaat that BNP has brought this far with shelter and overall support is now challenging BNP. Has the party high command fed the black snake with milk?

Tarique Rahman must give importance to these grassroots talks or discussions once he returns home. However, political analysts believe that the entire picture will change after Tarique Rahman returns home.

Meanwhile, Tarique Rahman, who has been in exile in London for a long time, has also undergone a major change in his character. Having learned from past history, he has now become quite calm. Tarique Rahman's patient and humble behavior, prudent outlook, respect for others and above all, his efforts to build good relations with everyone have made him a more popular and acceptable leader in all circles.

Martyred President Ziaur Rahman played a role in the Liberation War, sovereignty, Bangladeshi nationalism and the establishment of multi-party democracy until his death. Tarique Rahman is now leading the party he founded, BNP. Like his father, he is a traveler on the path of a friend, facing conspiracies and security risks.

He has spent most of his life in torture, exile, and struggle. He has witnessed his mother's sacrifice for the country, imprisonment, and torture since childhood. He has also lost his only brother, Arafat Rahman Koko.

Tarique Rahman is the leader of the motherland and the people to protect the sovereignty of the country. It is the sole responsibility of every citizen of the country to cooperate with him. Otherwise, the country will not be saved from the hands of spies. Especially, BNP must remember the torture, oppression and imprisonment during the last 15 and a half years of the fallen government. If you forget this, you will have to pay the price. Then there will be no more opportunities. It must also be remembered very hard that Jamaat has only taken benefits from BNP. And all the other parties are very small. Their public opinion is very low. That is why the neglected population has placed its trust and confidence in BNP.

Ambassador of humanity

BNP Acting Chairman Tarique Rahman is working as an ambassador of humanity. It seems that his eyes are on those helpless families who are sick, families who have no food, families who lost their children during the July Revolution or the fascist era. Tarique Rahman is standing by them through "We are the BNP family."

Through this organization, medical camps, eye treatment, heart treatment, blood donation programs are organized in various parts of the country, as well as wheelchair distribution, books among students, fertilizer and seeds among farmers, and clothes and gloves among workers.

He has also clearly told all the party leaders and activists to stand by the poor and helpless people and extend a helping hand to them. BNP leaders and activists and people from all walks of life in the country have applauded Tarique Rahman's generous decision.

The pride of the young generation of the nation, the leader of the nationalist force, Tarique Rahman has dedicated his life to the party and the people of the country. In political history, Tarique Rahman has taken such a decision only for the welfare of the country and the nation. Next December 25 will be the day of the full awakening of the nationalist force. The day of expressing the excitement of love. Tarique Rahman's dream of building a new Bangladesh.

There has been more propaganda about Tarique Rahman than there has been about any other politician in the history of Bangladesh. There has been no effort that has not been made to extinguish the special attraction that people have had towards Tarique Rahman and the BNP since he entered politics in the late 1990s.

While Begum Zia was allowed to do politics from home, the Awami League did not allow Tarique Rahman to do politics even for a day. In short, all arrangements were made to keep Tarique Rahman away from politics for the rest of his life.

The plot to force Tarique Rahman to leave the country through brutal torture during the 1-11 and the bond that was kept from Tarique Rahman when he went to the United States were also implemented by the Awami League through some dangerous army officers.

Out of revenge, Awami League wanted to banish BNP from the political arena in Bangladesh forever. But by the infinite mercy of Allah, Tarique Rahman is moving forward by conquering everything. It was not easy for him to reach this stage today. This man could not even lead a normal life for a long time even after going to London due to his difficult physical condition. And coming to political life is a far cry.

Still, slowly, little by little, he started communicating with the grassroots workers of BNP in remote areas of Bangladesh. Ignoring the bloodshed of the government, he has kept the leaders and activists united, despite how much disappointment, how much hurt, how much despair. And now Tarique Rahman has become the leader of not only BNP but the entire country. Even people of the opposition are praising his politics. In fact, he has become the embodiment of hope and confidence for everyone in Bangladesh.

For obvious reasons, everyone is now talking about one thing; this Tarique Rahman is not that Tarique Rahman. This Tarique Rahman is much more mature, experienced and farsighted. Tarique Rahman will create history in Bangladesh if BNP keeps his hand strong.

For the past 17 years, no media outlet in Bangladesh has broadcast or broadcasted Tarique Rahman's interview or news. This debate is now irrelevant. Holding a lot of pain in his chest, the simple-minded Tarique Rahman imprisoned himself in London with his wife and children in pride. He did not meet anyone in London. But he maintained contact with every unit of BNP in the country. His words were not broadcast in the country's media due to the unannounced ban of the Awami League. If any BNP worker or ordinary person shared his words from his ID on his own initiative, BTCL would immediately block those IDs. Tarique Rahman ran the party for 17 years sitting in a corner of a small room in London. Despite his many efforts, the Awami League could not detect the slightest breakdown in the BNP.

Tarique Rahman has been out in the open since the day Bangladesh became free due to the flight of the dictator Sheikh Hasina. All the protests and movements that the BNP has carried out in the country during Hasina's 17-year rule were led by Tarique Zia.

Despite the conspiracies of various international circles, BNP, under the leadership of Tarique Rahman, stood against all the forces of the state apparatus, including the Awami League, law enforcement agencies, the army, and organized seminars, meetings, human chains, protests, torch processions, long marches, strikes, blockades, and many other programs to achieve every just right. It was mainly because of Tarique Rahman that BNP survived in the political arena despite enduring hundreds of tortures and oppression. InshaAllah, in the near future, this leadership of Tarique Rahman will transform Bangladesh into a dignified and powerful state.
