Nahid Islam Calls for ‘July Fighters’ Self-Reliance on Security; Election to be Referendum on Reforms
National Citizens Party (NCP) Convener Nahid Islam stressed that the safety of “July fighters” depends on self-reliance and public organisation, not police, citing the unapprehended attackers in the Sharif Osman Hadi shooting. Speaking on Victory Day, Nahid pledged that the NCP’s election campaign would focus on a ‘yes’ vote for reforms, vowing never to return Bangladesh to the pre-August 5 state.
