DHAKA, Nov 4, 2020 (BSS) – Jatiya Sangsad Speaker Dr Shirin Sharmin Chaudhury today said constitution of the country is the proper reflection of deep feelings of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.

“After gaining independence, he(Bangabandhu) presented the Bengali nation the world’s best unique constitution. In order to give a proper reflection of this constitution and in the light of the political and economic philosophy of Bangabandhu followed in the constitution, everyone has to commit himself or herself to build the Sonar Bangla as dreamt by Bangabandhu,” she said.
