Political parties betrayed people after July Uprising: Nahid

City Desk:

Convenor of the National Citizens Party (NCP) Nahid Islam has accused political parties of betraying both the July Uprising and people after the movement.

Addressing a roadside NCP rally in Pabna’s Shaheed Chattar on Monday night, Nahid said, “The fascists and murderers must be brought to justice. We said fascist Hasina’s President (President Mohammed Shahabuddin) cannot be there as president. This generation removed her, but political parties were too afraid of acting more. They have deceived the movement and the people of the country.”

He stressed the need for reforming the media, police, bureaucracy, military and the constitution, saying a new Bangladesh would be built through reforms, reports UNB.

“Our student activists painted graffiti on school and college walls during the uprising — those graffiti already expressed the aspirations of post-August 5 Bangladesh. A new constitution has essentially been written with those,” he added.
