UNB, Dhaka :
Issuing a strong warning to Tarique Rahman for his derogatory remarks about Bangabandhu, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Wednesday advised BNP chief Khaleda Zia to ask her spoiled son to hold his tongue.
“I would like to tell the BNP chief, ask your spoiled son to hold his tongue,” the Prime Minister said while addressing a discussion meeting at Bangladesh Krishibid Institution.
Awami League organised the discussion marking the Victory Day with party presidium member and deputy leader of the House Syeda Sajeda Chowdhury in the chair.
Hasina, also the President of the ruling Awami League, came up with the remarks in reaction to BNP senior vice president Tarique Rahman’s remarks at a programme in London that Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was a ‘great Razakar’.
Without mentioning Tarique’s name, Hasina said people across the world, let alone those of Bangladesh, will not believe what he is uttering.
“He’s uttering heinous words. People won’t tolerate this…this can’t be tolerated.”
Bemoaning that she feels hatred in talking anything about him (Tarique), the Prime Minister said he is uttering indecent words constantly from London.  
“He’s deliberately distorting history to confuse people because Zia started this distortion, Khaleda Zia continued that and their son following the same footsteps,” she said.
Hasina said, Tarique making a terrible blunder as he is ignorant. “Had he been educated, had he read history, then he could have told the truth,” she said.
Saying that he (Tarique) turned beast because of his ignorance, the Prime Minister mentioned that he is now talking like a beast. “And the people of Bangladesh know it very well how to teach a beast a good lesson. The human like animal should get its due lesson and the people of the country will do that Inshallah.” She said another beast of history was Yahya.
Hasina said Tarique in his recent speeches talked like Yahya. “One will finds the similarity if he or she goes through Yahya’s speeches of March in 1971.”
Hasina attributed these heinous utterances by Tarique to war criminals’ trial.
AL senior leaders Amir Hossain Amu, Tofail Ahmed, Suranjit Sengupta, Matia Chowdhury, Seikh Fazlul Karim Selim, Mahbubul Alam Hanif, Mofazzal Hossain Chowdhury Maya, Dr Dipu Moni, Ahmed Hossain, AFM Bahauddin Nasim and advocate Kamrul Islam also spoke at the meeting.
