How we can build a better Bangladesh that everyone is proud to call home. We believe in some simple things. Families come first then they are the way, you make a country strong from the inside and out. The spirit of Bangladeshi conservatism and nationalism to lead the talented new generation will grow the true patriots in all religions, gender, caste and creeds who are the citizen of Bangladesh. It has become our duty and our responsibility to build up a safe, modern, prosperous, and humane society for the future generation.
We love our country, this is our motherland. Bangladesh had lot of hopes and aspirations. The people expected that the leaders would raise their patriotism and productivities to rebuild our motherland to fulfill the dream of a “Golden Bangladesh” but our political leaders had always done much sweet-talking than actual deeds. If the political history is evaluated then we can see that all the governments of the present and past had always side tracked the major issues and created confusion in the political atmosphere. The citizen is deprived of access to basic necessities of life such as food, education, employment, health care, clothing, housing and transportation and has been fallen a victim to violence in society, breakdown of law and order, institutionalized corruption. It is time for a change of Bangladesh. Therefore, we have launched a political party to mobilize people to establish “Golden Bangladesh” from its present state of despair and to set it on the path of attaining unity, solidarity, social justice and prosperity. The Bangladesh Citizen Party-BCP is the true political party for present and future democracy of Bangladesh. Spirit of Bangladeshi nationalism to lead the talented new generation grow the true patriots. Bangladesh is looking for a dynamic leadership for politics to develop every sectors and the bright future of Bangladesh.

Chairman, Bangladesh Citizen Party (BCP)
He was a well-known lawyer of the “Calcutta High Court” in his career. Before passing the law, he did Triple Honors in Physics, Chemistry and Mathematics from Calcutta University. Masters in Mathematics. The story of tearing the pages of a book once read as a child is like a fairy tale in the mouths of everyone in this country. Knowing that Professor Abdur Razzak wanted to write his biography, he said, “Razzak, tell me the truth, what do you really mean?” Razzak said, “I like it very much. When you come to Barisal, it seems that you have been farming for many years. Again, when Shyamaprasad calls Babu a brother in Calcutta, you really feel Hindu. When the kite flies to the Nawab’s house in Dhaka, it seems that you are also one of the Nawab’s family. No one can change himself as much as you. Whatever you say, true or false, people believe it without hesitation. “
Mahatma Gandhi’s grandson Rajmohan Gandhi wrote in his book that there are three leaders lying in the shrine of three leaders, two of whom became the Prime Minister of Pakistan. One was not allowed to be the Prime Minister of Pakistan, but he was the real tiger. But this is not an imperfection of his life, he was holding all possible positions except being the only president at some point in his life. He was the first Prime Minister of Bengal, the third Chief Minister of East Bengal; Union Home Minister of Pakistan, Governor of East Pakistan, Chancellor of Dhaka University. In response to the question as to why he is doing only East Bengal politics instead of all-India politics, Fazlul Haque said that if he gets on an airplane, the following things may look small and blurry, so I am on the ground.
Although he did not board a political airplane, he sent his private plane to Saudi Arabia to have a meeting with King Saud Fazlul Huq. This man of infinite courage has told us to fearlessly protest against all injustices. He warned the Bengali nation long ago. He said that the nation that puts its children to sleep in fear of cats, how will they learn to fight the lion? One day his junior came with a bunch of magazines in his hand and said, “Sir, look, the Calcutta newspapers are spreading your notoriety by writing page after page. You are not saying anything.” He said, “They are writing against me. It means I am really doing something for the Muslim farmers of East Bengal.” The day they praise me, they will think that the farmers of Bengal are in danger. “
Bagha Bagha politicians of the world used to say “Sher-e-Bangla”, in the true sense he was the leader of the masses. Nowadays, if you can be a little leader of the party, you will not fall to the ground, and if you are an MP, you will consider yourself a king! There he was General Secretary of the National Congress of Unified India in 1918, Minister of Education in 1924, the first Muslim Mayor of Calcutta in 1935, Chief Minister of Unified Bengal from 1936 to 1943, Chief Minister of East Pakistan in 1954, Law Administrator from 1947 to 1952, 1955 Home Minister of Pakistan from 1957 to 1958, East Pakistan from 1956 to 1956 Tanera governor, from 1958 onwards until 61 Pakistani Minister for Food and Agriculture.
“There is no need to have a university in Dhaka,” said Babura from Kolkata. Angered, Sher-e-Bangla Fazlul Haque went to the British Lord and explained that a university had to be established in Dhaka. This time the British were somewhat flexible. When Dhaka University was established, Sher-e-Bangla Fazlul Haque was the Minister of Education in Bengal. In 1918 he became the General Secretary of the Indian National Congress. He was the only person in history to be the President of the Muslim League and the General Secretary of the Congress at the same time. In 1917-19, Jawaharlal Nehru was Fazlul Huq’s personal secretary. In the 1937 elections, Sher-e-Bangla Abul Kashem Fazlul Haque announced that if he won the elections, he would abolish the zamindari system forever. Zamindars from all over Bangladesh and Kolkata have come together and spent millions of rupees to prevent him from getting elected. The peasants did not profit by voting for their leader.
Fazlul Haque knew that it would never last if Pakistan was united in the middle of the West and East with India in the middle. Jinnah has circumcised my Lahore proposal – saying that Fazlul Haque was not active in the movement for the establishment of Pakistan. In 1947, Jinnah merged Suhrawardy’s two Bengalis and accepted the demand for an independent United Bengal. But due to the opposition of the Congress, Bengal had to be divided in the end. Fazlul Haque said, a Pakistan will never last. Bengal and Assam should be made separate independent states. In 1971, it was found that Fazlul Huq’s fears and predictions were correct. Sher-e-Bangla Fazlul Haque was able to predict that something like 1971 would happen only in 1940.
Fazlul Haque At that time only Fazlul Haque, Sher-e-Bangla did not happen then. He has come to fight the case, but the opposing lawyer did not know the news. He came to the court and saw his father Wazed Ali standing against him. Fazlul Haque started arguing naturally. At one point, Wazed Ali addressed the court, saying, “What he is saying is not legal. The law is like this, this new lawyer doesn’t understand the law well. Fazlul Haque replied, “What if he is an old experienced lawyer?” He is a farmer’s son lawyer (actually his grandfather Akram Ali was a Persian scholar), what else does he understand by law? I am the son of a lawyer, my argument is correct. “He has been practicing law in the Calcutta High Court for over 40 years.
In the budget session of the Bengal Provincial Council, an MP started attacking Sher-e-Bangla AK Fazlul Haque personally. ঐ MP Sher has also written a song against Bengal and while singing the budget speech of the parliament, he started singing that song in a hoarse voice. In such a situation, it is difficult for anyone to keep a cool head. “Mr Speaker, I can jolly well face the music, but I can’t face a monkey.” This time there was a serious disaster. No one expected such a comment from a leader like him. Meanwhile, the MP demanded the Speaker to apologize at this moment and withdraw this unparliamentary statement. The speaker read another danger, how could he give such an order to such a great leader. Sher-e-Bangla was an intelligent man with a cold head. He stood up and said “Mr. Speaker, I never mentioned any honorable member of this House. But if any honorable member thinks that the cap fits him, I withdraw my remark.”
There is humble respect.
