BSS, Dhaka :
Urging party leaders and activists to remain alert so none can hamper the ‘Mujib Year’ enthusiasm, Awami League (AL) General Secretary Obaidul Quader said communal forces have started spreading propaganda to foil the celebration of the year.
“BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir and their allies are actually spreading malice against observance of the ‘Mujib Year’ while they are speaking against the visit of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi marking the year,” he said.
Quader, also Road Transport and Bridges Minister, made the remarks while addressing a joint meeting of the party’s secretariat and associate bodies on celebration of the birth centenary of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman at the party’s central office in the city’s Bangabandhu Avenue.
Terming India as the main ally of Bangladesh during the Liberation War of 1971, he said, “Blood of our freedom fighters remains blended with that of the Indian army. Prime Minister Narendra Modi is due in our country as the representative of Indian people”.
Noted politicians and dignitaries from different countries will also visit Bangladesh marking the ‘Mujib Year’, he continued.
The AL General Secretary said everyone should pay homage to Bangabandhu without resorting to any excesses.
