Mithapukur upazila BSD member Comrade Mizanur Rahman conducted the rally.
 
The speakers said BSD was formed 44 years ago with the objective of organizing the people to end exploitation and discrimination  .
 
Starting from the movement to protect the country's national wealth to resolve the crisis of farmers, workers, and the landless, BSD has been continuously protesting against the rise in commodity prices and increase in oil-gas-electricity prices.
 
BSD has shown that the country's farmers, workers, and the hardworking people create the major portion of the wealth, but there is no guarantee of their ownership in the distribution system.
 
In the 54 years of independence, many farmers have lost their land and become landless, workers have lost their jobs and many students have been in trouble due to the increase in education costs.
 
Due to the hardship of rising commodity prices, 38 percent of people are unable to buy nutritious food from the food list. Education and medical care have gone beyond the reach of the working people .
 
To solve the existing problems, the BSD leaders demanded dissolution of syndicates, price control, the introduction of rations for workers  and a proportional electoral system by announcing an electoral roadmap.
