Citizens should be informed about the sources of income and expenditure of political parties elected by their votes.”
BNP Treasurer M Rashiduzzaman Millat explained that income was generated from membership fees, donations from well‑wishers, and the sale of party nomination forms.
Expenditure covered organisational activities, political programmes, vehicle purchases, publication of leaflets and posters, office maintenance, staff salaries, and assistance to needy party leaders and activists.
