Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) Chairman and former minister Col. (Retd.) Oli Ahmed has cautioned the government to heed public dissatisfaction and correct its governance trajectory, warning that unchecked partisan influence in state institutions will lead to political peril.
Addressing the opening rally of the 11-party alliance's Dhaka-Khulna-Jhenaidah-Kushtia long march at the South Gate of Baitul Mukarram National Mosque on Saturday morning, October 31, 2026, Oli Ahmed delivered a sharp critique of the administration. He asserted that without strong institutional systems—contrasting Bangladesh's political structure with governance models in Europe and America—sustainable national progress is impossible. He alleged that government offices, district councils, corporations, and municipalities have been turned into partisan party offices, monopolizing local tenders and administration.

Those standing with you now will flee in times of crisis... I urge you to be cautious in time, or you will fall into grave danger." Drawing parallels to the political deadlock of 1996 when caretaker government demands were initially ignored, he advised the government to consult experienced professionals rather than partisan advisors to ensure national stability. The high-profile rally was attended by key 11-party alliance leaders, including Jamaat-e-Islami Amir Dr. Shafiqur Rahman, Maulana Mamunul Haque, Mia Golam Parwar, and Mojibur Rahman Manju.
