‘Ganatantro Mukti Dibas’ tomorrow
DHAKA, Dec 5, 2018 (BSS)- “Ganatantro Mukti Dibas” will observe in the
country tomorrow marking the fall of autocratic ruler in 1990.
On the eve of the day, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina issued a message
urging all to work together to strengthen the foundation of democracy calling
people as “Sentinel of Democracy” in a statement coinciding with the
anniversary of fall of autocracy in 1990.
“The 6th December is a significant day in the history of restoring
democracy. On this day in 1990, the fall of the autocratic government took
place,” she said.
The Premier urged countrymen to join their hands to free the country
entirely from poverty and hunger and build a happy and prosperous “Sonar
Bangla” to materialize Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur
Rahman’s dream.
In the last two decades after the 1990, she said, the ruling Awami League
played a responsible role to protect democracy and the people’s rights of
voting.
Referring to the anti-autocrat movement of 1990, she recalled the supreme
sacrifice of many including Noor Hossain, Babul, Fattah, Doctor Milon and
others and paid tributes to their memories.
Different political, social and cultural organisations have chalked out
various programmes to mark the day.
