Rizvi says elected government remains accountable to the people.
Prime Minister's Political and Industrial Affairs Adviser and BNP Senior Joint Secretary General Advocate Ruhul Kabir Rizvi today said the government remains accountable to the people because it was elected through their votes.
“The government is working for the welfare of the people. No one will be spared if found involved in any crime,” he said while addressing a tree plantation programme at the Bangladesh Livestock Research Institute (BLRI) in Savar.
The programme was organised by the Agriculture Association of Bangladesh (AAB) as part of a nationwide initiative, launched under the directive of Prime Minister Tarique Rahman, to plant 25 crore trees over the next five years to protect the environment and strengthen climate resilience.
Addressing the event as the chief guest, Rizvi said the present government assumed office through a free, fair and impartial election with the people's mandate, not by force.
Earlier, State Minister for Fisheries and Livestock Sultan Salauddin Tuku visited the Central Cattle Breeding and Dairy Farm.
Dhaka-19 lawmaker Dr Dewan Mohammad Salauddin Babu, Krishak Dal Central President Agriculturist Hasan Zafir Tuhin, General Secretary Shahidul Islam Babul, AAB President Dr Kamruzzaman Kaiser and Member Secretary Shahadat Hossain Biplob, among others, attended the programme.
