CHUADANGA, Jan 17 (UNB): Jamaat-e-Islami Bangladesh Ameer Shafiqur Rahman has said his party will not cease its movement until a misrule-free Bangladesh is established.
He mentioned the party's unwavering commitment to achieving an equitable and corruption-free Bangladesh.
The jamaat ameer was speaking at an workers' conference in Chuadanga on Friday.
He began his speech by highlighting the years of oppression faced by Jamaat-e-Islami, saying that the party's leaders had been falsely accused and sentenced to death in fabricated cases, and thousands of activists had been killed under the Awami League (AL)'s rule.
Awami League and its allies had looted religious institutions and carried out widespread destruction across the country, he also said.

"Until we establish a corruption-free and misrule-free Bangladesh, Jamaat-e-Islami will not stop," Shafiqur also said, asserting reinforcing the party's stance on continuing its movement for justice and fairness.
Referring to the AL's violent tenure, the Jamaat leader accused the AL of killing intellectuals, educators, and experienced citizens to maintain power. He also denounced the torture, abductions, and violations carried out under their governance.
He paid tribute to the student-led movement that forced the authoritarian regime to flee in August 2024. "Our children led the revolution, and their efforts secured the freedom we now have. The people have driven out those who oppressed them," he said.
"This generation has brought us new freedom, and we will defend it, even if it requires blood," he said.
Highlighting Jamaat's stance ahead of the upcoming elections, Dr. Rahman stressed that the party would not sell its votes and would fight against corruption, black money, and muscle power. He reiterated that the elections must be fair and transparent.
The conference, chaired by Chuadanga District Jamaat Amir, Advocate Ruhul Amin, also featured speeches from key party leaders, including Md. Zahidul Islam, President of Bangladesh Chhatra Shibir, and Mobarak Hossain, a member of the Jamaat-e-Islami Executive Council.
Thousands of Jamaat workers and leaders from across Chuadanga district attended the conference, marking it as a significant political event in the region. The event concluded with Advocate Ruhul Amin pledging Jamaat's continued dedication to serving humanity and working for the betterment of the nation.
