Bangabandhu Sangskritik Jote

A discussion marking the Jail Killing Day organised by Bangabandhu Sangskritik Jote, an alliance of cultural bodies imbued with the ideology of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was held at the Jatiya Press Club. State Minister for Information Dr Md Murad Hassan was present as the chief guest in the programme held on Sunday. While speaking Murad said jail killing is a stigmatised chapter in the country’s history. “The November 3 is a stigmatised day in the history of the independent Bangladesh,” he added. Murad said the assassination of four national leaders in a solitary confinement cell was a continuation of the assassination of the Father of the Nation and his family members. He said through this heinous murder, the defeated forces of independence had tried to wipe out the name of Awami League from the soil of Bengal forever, destroy the spirit of the Liberation War and make the Bengalee nation leaderless. Following the ideology of Bangabandhu, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has thrown the conspirators into the dustbin of history. The function was also addressed, among others, by Special Assistant to the Prime Minister Biplob Barua, AL leaders Abu Ahmed Mannafi, Adv Balram Poddar, journalist Manik Lal Ghosh and actress Tarin. The event was presided over by Ward Councilor Chittaranjan Das.
