S.A. Jinnah Kabir said, “Under the visionary leadership of National Leader Tarique Rahman, the autocratic regime has collapsed in the face of a people’s movement led by the BNP, students, and the general public. Now we must work together to transform the outcome of that movement into sustainable national development. We must uphold the ideals of martyred President Ziaur Rahman and continue the path of progress.”

He further stated, “As part of fulfilling the people’s 17-year-long expectations, the interim government has decided to hold the national election in February 2026. However, a vested quarter is conspiring to sabotage the election in the name of a so-called ‘PR system’. For the sake of the nation’s welfare, this evil force must be unitedly resisted.”

Calling upon party leaders and workers to play an active role in ensuring the victory of the Sheaf of Paddy, he also encouraged women to take a leading role in the political arena alongside men.

S.A. Jinnah Kabir prayed for the recovery of BNP Chairperson Begum Khaleda Zia and sought everyone’s prayers for the good health and long life of National Leader Tarique Rahman.
