First is ensuring people\u2019s safety, so that they can move freely, work and earn a living safely. When Khaleda Zia led the government in the past, you saw that no one was spared for wrongdoing, even if they belonged to our own party. If the people stand by BNP, we will again strictly control law and order so that ordinary people can live their lives without fear,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cNo matter how many plans we make, if we cannot control this one issue, none of our plans will succeed. What is that? Corruption. BNP has proven in the past that it can control corruption. At any cost, the next BNP government will clamp down on corruption. These two are our commitments to the people,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Referring to past BNP administrations, Tarique said, \u201cWhen Khaleda Zia took charge in 2001, she gradually pulled the country out of the grip of corruption.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis proves that the law is equal for everyone. An offender is identified by the crime, not by party identity. Whoever the offender is, action will be taken. Corruption will be dealt with the same way, no matter who commits it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He also called on people to remain united and vigilant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn Chattogram, people from the plains and the hills live together. We want to build the country with everyone,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Urging voters to support the party, he called on people to place their trust in the BNP\u2019s Sheaf of Paddy symbol.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If voted to power, BNP Chairman Tarique Rahman today said his party would firmly curb corruption and strictly maintain law and order. \u201cI want to clearly say that under the plans we have taken, if anyone breaks the law or creates obstacles through corruption, they will not be spared,\u201d he said at a rally in [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6033,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6032","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-bangladesh"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 -
