General Secretary of Samyabadi Dal (SD) Dilip Barua on Tuesday called upon all to come forward to form national unity on the basis of the spirit of the Liberation War to tackle militancy.
“People should join hands together to form a national unity based on the spirit of the Liberation War to fight militancy” he told a press briefing while replying to queries about the country’s current political situation.
Stressing the need for forming anti-militancy committees under the banner of the 14-party to stamp out the social menaces, he said, “Jamaat should be banned for doing so and establishing a secular Bangladesh as well.”
Barua, also former industries minister, demanded government interference to bring under its control different commercial and financial institutions such as Islami Bank and different educational institutions run by the Jamaat and their followers to stop terror financing.
Speaking about the foreign and local conspiracy to hinder the development works taken by the government, he said, “We along with the people will be always by the side of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina to face together any imminent trouble.”
At the briefing, he announced that national council of the Sammyabadi Dal will be held between December 18 and 22 next.
