Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islam Ameer Dr Shafiqur Rahman has vowed that stealing the country’s money will be permanently stopped if his party assumes power.

“Those who have stolen the country’s money will be held strictly accountable, and the money will be recovered from them,” he said at an election rally at Wazir Ali High School ground in Jhenaidah on Monday evening.

The programme was presided over by Ali Azam Mohammad Abu Bakar, Jamaat’s candidate for the Jhenaidah-2 constituency.

Dr. Shafiqur Rahman said the party seeks unity, not division, and called for a political revolution through the upcoming 26th general election, similar to the people’s uprising against fascism in 2024.

“If anyone interferes with people’s voting rights under political disguise, their fingers will be broken. Fascism will not be allowed to return to this country,” he warned.

The Jamaat Ameer also claimed that extortion has increased in Jhenaidah since August 5. “Those who extort should feel ashamed. People earn money through hard work, and you take a share of it. Extortion is haram, but begging is not,” he said.

He criticized syndicates that raised prices during the fascist government and said, “We have driven fascism away with the fresh blood of our hearts. If anyone tries to return, we will stop it, because so many families have already suffered losses.”

Dr. Shafiqur Rahman outlined Jamaat’s development plans, including providing skill-based training for educated youths, establishing a medical college in Jhenaidah, improving healthcare, and digging railways and rivers for better communication. “If Jamaat comes to power, development will be non-discriminatory, and justice will always side with the people,” he said.

Referring to Jhenaidah as a district of martyrs, he said, “Many young lives, like that of Sohan, were brutally taken by tyrants, with unimaginable cruelty. I stand with the families of the victims.”

During the rally, district Jamaat leaders and constituency candidates – Ali Azam Mohammad Abu Bakar (Jhenaidah-2), Abu Saleh Md. Matiur Rahman (Jhenaidah-1), Matiar Rahman (Jhenaidah-3), and Abu Talib (Jhenaidah-4) – were presented with the party symbol, the scale, and urged voters to support them.​
