DHAKA, March 7, 2021 (BSS) – Awami League Presidium Member Jahangir Kabir Nanak today said Mizanur Rahman Minu, advisor to the BNP chairperson, must have to apologize to the nation for making comments on ‘repeating August 15, 1975 like incidents’ at the party’s Rajshahi divisional rally on March 3.
He said this while addressing a discussion of Krishak League marking the historic March 7 at Bangabandhu Memorial Museum at Dhanmondi road number 32 here.

The perpetrators wanted to erase everything of the March 7 speech, he added.
“Today BNP is observing March 7 speech. It is a part their conspiracy at home and abroad,” he said.
