Bangladesh Swadhinata Parishad
A discussion on ‘Sheikh Hasina’s Imprisonment Day’ organised by Bangladesh Swadhinata Parishad was held in Dhaka Reporters’ Unity (DRU) auditorium on Monday. Awami League Publicity and Publication Affairs Secretary Dr Hasan Mahmud was present as the chief guest. While speaking Hasan said the BNP would cease to exist if the party would not take part in the next parliament election.”If BNP does not take part in the next election, the party’s leaders and workers will be frustrated and they will be lost,” he added. Hasan said BNP Chairperson Begum Khaleda Zia burst into tears when she met her son Tarique Rahman in London.”But Begum Khaleda Zia did not weep when innocent people were killed in petrol bomb attacks in the name of movement carried out by BNP. She only cries for her residence and son but never cries for the countrymen,” he said. Hasan said BNP Chairperson has lost her capability to remain as a leader of the people because of her such activities. He said Begum Zia will not be able to reap any benefit by hatching conspiracy over the next election by staying in London. The function was addressed, among others, by former State Minister for Home Advocate Shamsul Haque Tuku, Comilla (North) district Awami League President MA Awal Sarker, Awami League leaders Shahjahan Alam Saju and Hasibur Rahman Manik.
