Dr. Shafiqur Rahman said that although the opposition in Parliament gives constructive suggestions, they are not being accepted. He claimed that instead of going into a culture of disorder in Parliament as in the past, they have been forced to protest on the streets to realize the people's demands.

Criticizing the increase in fuel oil prices, he said that due to its impact, prices of various commodities are rising and it is having a widespread impact on public life. He also said that if the government does not listen to their demands, the movement will continue.
