Defeated forces start hatching plot in August: Quader
DHAKA, Aug 5, 2019 (BSS) – Awami League General Secretary and Road
Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader today said when the month of
August comes every year, the defeated forces of the 1971 liberation war start
hatching conspiracy against the country.
“Smell of conspiracy is found in the air in August and that is why we all
should stay alert. When the month of August comes, the defeated forces start
hatching conspiracy,” he told reporters after placing a wreath on the grave
of Shahid Sheikh Kamal in city’s Banani area.
Quader placed the wreath on the grave of Sheikh Kamal, elder son of Father
of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, marking his 70th birth
anniversary.
On behalf of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, he directed the Awami League (AL)
leaders and activists to stand by flood victims, help the government deal with the
current dengue situation and participate voluntarily in the programmes
taken in the month of August.
The AL general secretary said Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh
Mujibur Rahman along with most of his family members were brutally killed on August
15, 1975. Grenade attacks were carried out to kill Prime Minister Sheikh
Hasina in an anti-terrorism rally at Bangabandhu Avenue in the month of
August, he added.
Quader said a series of bomb blast was carried out in the country’s 63
districts in August and there was also a plot to conduct an attack on
Dhanmondi-32.
About Sheikh Kamal, the AL leader said Kamal had courage and leadership
capacity and he was capable to be a role model for youths.
Earlier, AL leaders and activists placed a wreath on the grave of Sheikh
Kamal and offered doa for the eternal peace of his departed soul.
