New student-backed political party to contest in all 300 constituencies: Rifat Rashid

Rifat Rashid, central executive committee member of the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement, has announced that the student-backed political party will be launched in February. He also said that the party aims to field candidates in all 300 parliamentary seats in the upcoming elections to fulfil the aspirations of the people in the post-July period.

He made these remarks on Sunday (January 26) during an exchange meeting held at the Mohammad Ali Yeakub Ali School field in Tetuljhara Union, Savar.

Rashid warned that any party that fails to meet public demands or resorts to oppression, similar to the ousted Awami League, will also be rejected by the people.
