BSS, Dhaka :
Industries Minister and senior Awami League leader Amir Hossain Amu said Awami League (AL) has a glorious role and record of success in every major mass movement aimed at ensuring political, economic, social and cultural emancipation of the people of this country.
The industries minister made the remark on Thursday while making an unscheduled statement in the Jatiya Sangsad on founding anniversary of the ruling Bangladesh Awami League.
He said Awami League was always with the people in the past and will remain with the mass in future also.
Amu said as the oldest political party of Bangladesh the AL began its journey on June 23, 1949 for materializing the suppressed hopes and aspirations of the people of this country.
With its golden past and magnificent present, the Awami League has been representing the mainstream of the progressive, non-communal and democratic politics of the country, the minister told the House.
He said Awami League is the only political party, which had fought against four army led governments and survived as one of the biggest political parties in the world. The party has a glorious history of waging relentless and uncompromising struggles against autocracy, communalism, and political and economic domination.
“Good period returns when Awami League assumes power, but Awami League never enjoys power,” Amu, also advisory council member of Awami League, informed the Jatiya Sangsad. He said vested quarters always conspired against Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina for killing her. But ignoring the death threat Awami League President Sheikh Hasina has devoted herself to welfare of the common people to materialize Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman’s dream.
“After independence when Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was busy rebuilding the nation, the anti-national forces struck again. On August 15, 1975 they killed Bangabandhu along with most of his family members,” Amu said.
He said Bangabandhu was elected Awami League’s general secretary when in jail and the party was formed on the day when the sun of the independence of Bangla was set at Amrakanon of Palashi on June 23, 1757.
