Mohammed Nasim, also health and family welfare minister, said the 14-party alliance will hold a rally in Dhaka on September 29 where leaders of different professional bodies will address.
Speaking on the occasion, Rashed Khan Menon said during the BNP-Jamaat led four-party alliance government regime, “we could not take to street but we did not leave street.”
On the other hand, BNP could not wage any movement in the last 10 years as they did not know on which issue they would wage movement, he added.
Hasanul Haq Inu said the alliance of 14-party does not depend on whether BNP-Jamaat takes part in the election or not. The unity will remain intact until the communal evil forces will be uprooted from the country, he added.
