If another revolution happens, it’ll be against media and administration: Hasnat
Ownership may have changed, but their character has not, NCP leader says

NCP Chief Organiser (South) Hasnat Abdullah today came down heavily on the media, police and the administration at an election rally held in Cumilla’s Laksham.
“If another revolution takes place, it will be against the media and the administration,” Hasnat, the 11-party alliance candidate from Cumilla-4 (Debidwar), said as a special guest at the rally.
Ahead of the upcoming 13th National Parliamentary Election, the alliance organised three separate public rallies today in Feni, Laksham in Cumilla, and at the Cumilla Town Hall ground. Jamaat-e-Islami Ameer Dr Shafiqur Rahman addressed the rallies as the chief guest.
Criticising the media, Hasnat said, “Dear media colleagues, it is deeply unfortunate that even after July, some media figures have not stopped acting as brokers. Somoy TV, Ekattor TV, DBC have once again started this... I have seen that the reports written by agencies are published directly by DBC, Ekattor, and Somoy TV. Ownership may have changed, but their character has not. We will once again bring you before the people’s court, In sha Allah.”
He further said, “The media only asks questions. All the world’s questions and problems are directed towards us. ‘Where does our income come from? Where do our living expenses come from? Where do we buy our shirts? How are political programmes organised?’ All these questions are for us [NCP] and not for certain political parties. Meanwhile, all praise and admiration go to that one particular political party.”
Hasnat said, “I see members of the administration and police present here. Your accountability is to the people. Your accountability is not to Gulshan, not to Dhanmondi. Your accountability is only to the people.”
Addressing the administration, he said, “You do not need to serve any political party. You are not Jamaat-e-Islami's, you are not BNP's , you are not NCP's. Your accountability is to the people of Bangladesh.”
He warned, “If you steal votes, if you conduct ‘night-time elections’ by stuffing ballots at night, if you steal the people’s mandate, you will be accountable to your own children.”
Addressing police, he said, “Earlier, your senior officials used you to secure their own positions and titles. They used you… Do not allow yourselves to be used anymore. Stand for justice and fairness, not for any political party. The people of Bangladesh will stand by you.”
“The media and administration are necessary to make Bangladesh happy, prosperous, and developed. We are not your enemies. We want your accountability to be people-oriented, not party-oriented."
