Dhaka: Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir declared that the party’s acting chairman, Tarique Rahman, is the future Prime Minister of Bangladesh. This announcement was made at the national conference of the Doctors’ Association of Bangladesh (DAB), held at Willes Little Flower School and College in the city.
According to Bangladesh Sangbad Sangstha, Tarique Rahman attended the event as the chief guest, with DAB President Professor Dr. Harun Al Rashid presiding over the proceedings, and National University Pro Vice-Chancellor Professor Md. Lutfor Rahman conducting the event. Mirza Fakhrul emphasized the necessity of ensuring all rights, including food and healthcare, alongside democratic systems and voting rights. He acknowledged the competence of Bangladeshi doctors while pointing out systemic issues and a culture of mutual animosity that he believes has been detrimental to the nation.
Mirza Fakhrul urged the party to move away from slogan-based politics and the culture of mutual hatred, which he described as destructive. He highlighted the potential impact of Tarique Rahman’s 31-point plan, suggesting it could lead to significant changes in the healthcare sector and other areas of the country. Addressing the role of the DAB, he underscored their dual responsibility to serve the people and contribute to the country’s future by assisting political figures in formulating health policies.
