On May 17,1981, Sheikh Hasina returned to Dhaka after a long exile. Earlier on February 14, 15 and 16 in 1981, Awami League in its council meeting had elected Sheikh Hasina as the president of the party.
After a long hovering over the airport, an aircraft of Indian Airlines carrying Sheikh Hasina from Delhi via Kolkata, touched the runway at 4:30 pm. She was overwhelmed by emotion, she kissed the soil of the motherland immediately after alighting from the aircraft. Father of the Nation, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, along with his family members was brutally killed on August 15, 1975. Luckily his daughters, Sheikh Hasina and Sheikh Rehana, were in Germany then, and thus became the survivors.
