QUADER-BNP-COMMUNALISM-2 LAST DHAKA
Quader said now they have to face two challenges -one is to contain the second wave of the pandemic and the second one is to stand beside the distressed and working class people.
He urged the party leaders and workers to conduct campaign to raise public awareness in facing the pandemic.
Now the AL leaders and activists will have to act as the country’s workers, he said.
About BNP secretary general Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir’s remarks that “the government is turning the country into a hell”, Quader said actually the people think that the extreme communal forces incited by BNP had turned different places of the country into hell on March 26 last.
Not the government, BNP carries out arson attacks visibly as well as secretly in the name of movement which is tantamount to barbaric acts, he said, adding that BNP is continuing its barbaric acts to take revenge on the people.
He said BNP had carried out violence on minority community as well as leaders and workers of AL after the 2001 general elections.
The minister said with the cooperation of people, the government is now taking ahead the country facing the communal evil forces.
He hoped under the leadership of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, the country will go towards the golden horizon with the spirit of the Liberation War breaking the venomous teeth of communal evil forces.
AL Relief and Social Welfare Secretary Sujit Roy Nandi physically attended the Iftar item distribution ceremony at Postagola in the city while Dhaka City South AL President Abu Ahmed Mannafi and General Secretary Md Humayun Kabir joined it virtually.
