National Citizen Party (NCP) Convenor Nahid Islam has cautioned the current administration against repeating the "partisan tendencies" of the ousted Sheikh Hasina regime.
Speaking at an Iftar party at the Ambika Memorial Ground in Faridpur on Saturday, Nahid alleged that signs of politicising state institutions, including the judiciary, administration, and police, have emerged within the first month of the new government.
"We saw how state institutions had been politicised under Hasina. We are seeing the same tendencies from the start of this government," Nahid said, urging the authorities to act responsibly.
He also issued a stern warning against any attempt to rehabilitate what he called "fascists" taking advantage of historic dates or figures.
"If fascists are rehabilitated in the name of Mar 7, the Liberation War, or Sheikh Mujib, the NCP and the 11-party alliance will not accept it," he said.
"There is no forgiveness for fascists. Their trial, and the trial of their accomplices, will certainly take place on this soil."
Nahid called on the BNP to take their oaths as members of the Constitution Reform Council as soon as the first session of parliament commences on Mar 12.
He also demanded the removal of President Mohammed Shahabuddin.
"If there is any deviation from this, the 11-party alliance and the NCP will be forced to reconsider their decisions," he warned.
The NCP convenor accused the ruling party of "betraying" the aspirations of the July mass uprising.
