BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir has called upon India to respect Bangladesh’s sovereignty and democracy.
He also urged India not to align with any specific political party, particularly Awami League, in a way that could undermine the democratic aspirations of the Bangladeshi people.
“Bangladesh is a nation that fought for its independence through immense sacrifices,” Fakhrul said during a rally in London at 2:00am (Bangladesh Time) today.
“Do not stand against the people who achieved democracy shedding blood. The people of Bangladesh will never accept this,” he added.
Fakhrul criticised the recent incidents involving Bangladesh’s diplomatic missions in India and raised concerns about border activities near Sylhet and Benapole.
