DHAKA, Dec 20, 2018 (BSS) – Prime Minister and Awami League President Sheikh
Hasina today urged the countrymen to reelect the Awami League to keep up the
country’s development spree and serve the people again.
“We’ve already executed many projects in the country while many mega schemes
are under implementation. So, I call upon the countrymen to continue the pace
of uplift and give us another scope to serve the people again by casting
votes for boat, the Awami League’s election symbol,” she said.
The prime minister was addressing election rallies in Rajshahi, Joypurhat,

celebrate the Mujib Barsho and the golden jubilee of the independence in a
befitting manner with massive festivity,” she said.
