PM-AL-EXTENDED MEETING-2-DHAKA
Office bearers and leaders representing different units of Awami League at
districts, upazila, pourasabha and union levels from Rangpur, Khulna, Dhaka
and Mymensingh divisions took part in the third-phase extended meeting of the
party.
Recalling the atrocities of BNP and Jamaat ahead of the general election
in 2014, the prime minister said they burnt people alive and set fire on
public properties indiscriminately in the name of movement to foil the polls.
But, they could not foil the election as the people stood against their
evil design; she said adding that Awami League works for the people as they
are the main strength of the party.
Sheikh Hasina reminded her workers that the people may go to oblivion if a
thing is not told to them repeatedly. The forces which are even have no faith
in the independence, would do nothing for the people, she said. “So, you have
to go to the people and tell them those things constantly,” she added.
The prime minister shared with the delegates one of her initiative to
publish a series of book based on the intelligence reports, which were
compiled against Bangabandhu during the pre-independence era, and the
Agartala Conspiracy Case. This book would be very useful to learn about the
country’s history and Bangabandhu’s relentless struggle for independence.
Sheikh Hasina said Awami League would take part in the election in
alliance with other friendly political parties. So Awami League leaders
should be ready for sacrifice. Therefore, she said, all of you must work for
the candidates whoever is given nomination from the party.
