Dhaka, October 20, 2025: In the wake of the recent spate of fires in the country, which have resulted in loss of life and extensive damage, the Bangladesh Awami League has issued a statement. The party has alleged that the “illegal occupier murderer-fascist Yunus Gang” is conspiring to destroy the country’s economy and stability by causing these fires.

The statement said, “The goal of this planned evil act by Yunus Gang is to push the orderly and development-oriented Bangladesh to the brink of destruction and make the lives of the people miserable. The Awami League wishes the departed souls of the deceased a speedy recovery, and expresses its deepest condolences to the victims.”

The statement further said that the illegal occupying government has no responsibility towards the people. Due to their indifference, inefficiency and lack of coordination, negligence has been evident in extinguishing the fire and rescue operations after the fire. It was also alleged that the government is spreading confusion about the number of casualties and is trying to blame the Awami League to cover up its own failures.

The Awami League has claimed that the main goal of this illegal government is to destroy the country’s economy, create instability in the country, and establish foreign subservience. Through this, they want Bangladesh to not receive international recognition as a middle-income country and disrupt the continuity of development built under Sheikh Hasina’s leadership.

The statement said, “Most of the officials of this illegal occupying government hold foreign passports. They are running the state under the orders of foreign masters. If the country is destroyed, they will go to alternative places, but we have to protect our country.”

The Awami League called on the people of the country to unite and resist this anti-national conspiracy and mischief. The party emphasized, “We must protect our independence, sovereignty and the path of development, even if it means destroying everything if necessary.”
