However, the BNP leader admitted that it may not be possible to change everything overnight.
He stressed the need for proper reconstruction of the country’s institutions. “Our democratic institutions were destroyed during the Awami League government in the last 15 years. We believe in institutional solutions.
What we need most right now is to repair the institutions. enough is enough. Let us truly build Bangladesh in accordance with our dreams and the wishes of the people.”
Responding to a question on whether his party wanted the fascist political party Awami League to participate in the elections, Fakhrul said the people of the country would decide on the matter. “As a political party, we are not willing to take any decision on this.”
Asked why the BNP was insisting on an interim government to hold national elections immediately, Fakhrul said he believed only an elected government could properly solve the country’s problems. “Since the elected government comes to power with the mandate of the people, they have the authority to address the issues of the people.”
