Khaleda\\\'s rally in Nilphamari today

BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia is on the way to Bogra as she will address a public rally in Nilphamari today (Thursday), aiming to mobilise public support in favour of 20-party alliance's demand for holding fresh polls under a non-party administration, reports UNB.

The BNP chief left her Gulshan house at around 4:15 pm for Bogra Wednesday and will stay overnight at Bogra Circuit house.

She will again start her journey for Nilphamari from the Circuit House at around 11:00 am today.

Khaleda will address a public rally to be arranged by the local unit of the 20-party alliance at Pourasva Braomath in Nilphamari district town in the afternoon.

The BNP chief is scheduled to return to the capital on the same day after attending the rally.

With the Nilphamari tour, the BNP chief will also launch a fresh countrywide mass campaign programme planned by her party-led 20-party to create a solid ground for a decisive movement to force the current administration to quit and arrange a fresh inclusive election.

The mass campaign is also meant for mounting pressure on the government to stop extrajudicial killings, enforced disappearances and repressive acts, and restore the democratic rights of people.

Meanwhile, on Monday night, Khaleda said she will announce a decisive movement after their mass campaign to dislodge the government.

"We'll again get back to action programme after carrying out a mass campaign… I'll come up with a call for the movement in due time. You take preparation in your respective areas so that you can respond to my call any time. We must oust this regime and save the country and its people from killings, enforced disappearances and misrule," she told the representatives of BNP-backed local government bodies under Rajshahi division.

The local unit of the 20-party has taken all-out preparations to welcome their leader and make Nilphamari rally a success.
