None will be spared for wrongdoing: PM
DHAKA, Sept 19, 2019 (BSS) – Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina today asked the leaders and activists of Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL) to pursue politics with principles, ideology and patience and issued a strong warning that none will be spared for any wrongdoing.
“You should not be indulged in any work that can destroy the confidence and trust of the people … you’ll have to value the confidence and trust of the people,” she said when a delegation of Bangladesh Chhatra League called on her at her Ganabhaban residence here this evening.
Acting president of BCL Al Nahiyan Khan Joy and acting general secretary Lekhak Bhattacharya led the 23-member team.
After the meeting, PM’s Deputy Press Secretary Hasan Jahid Tusher briefed reporters.
Sheikh Hasina, also the Awami League president, told the BCL leaders: “We’ve given you responsibility by keeping confidence and trust in you. If you fail to keep up that dignity, there is no need to you.”
The prime minister also advised the BCL leaders and activists to be humble, saying: “We don’t expect that the student leaders will show off their power after going to power … you’ll have to be humble as long as you’ll go to the top.”
Sheikh Hasina said the government became hard on Jubo League after Chhatra League. “Social anomalies will have to be removed and we’ll not tolerate clashes and killing with casino,” she said.
The prime minister said she is developing the country through hard work. “But I’ll not allow any black spot to be put on it … I’ll not spare any wrongdoer,” she said.
Sheikh Hasina said how the foreigners came with casino and how they got visas — all things will be probed. “If anybody tries to obstruct this work, he or she will be dealt with iron hands,” she said.
