Former advisor to the caretaker government Sultana Kamal said all citizens irrespective of caste, creed and religions, have an equal right to the state resources.
She said during the war of independence we fought against the Pakistanis excepting some black sheep of the country and at that time there was no difference among Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists and Christians.
The former advisor to the caretaker government said this on Friday while inaugurating the triennial conference of Mahanagar Hindu-Buddha-Christian Oikya Parishad at Gulistan Mahanagar Natyamanch here.
Sultana Kamal ignited candle and hoisted the national flag at the function. Advocate Rana Das Gupta, general secretary of the Oikya Parishad, hoisted the flag of the organization.
Oikya Parishad President Prof Dr Nim Chandra Bhowmik, Advocate Subrata Chowdhury, Dr Jinbodi Bikkhu, Advocate Rana Das Gupta, among others, spoke on the occasion.
After the independence, we are still fighting for equal rights, which are unfortunate, said the former advisor.
