Amar Bangladesh Party, AB Party, has rejected the national budget FY2024-25 claiming that the party is not considering parliament as a legitimate representation of the people of this country.

All 350 dummy members are simply appointed by this ruling hybrid regime. They do not have the mandate of the people of this country, said AB Party.

Therefore, as per the constitution of this republic, they have no jurisdiction either to propose or pass a budget. Citizens cannot either be forced upon to pay ever increasing taxes and vat to those who are not transparent and accountable to the nation.

 AB Party leaders said this at a media briefing held on Monday at its central office. AFM Solaiman Chowdhury, AB Party Convenor, Asaduzzaman Fuaad, a barrister-at-law and Joint Member Secretary of the party, Mojibur Rahman Monju, Member Secretary, Prof. Dr. Abdul Wahab Minar, Joint Convenor, among others, tee, were also present at the briefing.
