City Desk :
Information and Broadcasting Minister Dr Hasan Mahmud on Saturday said Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has established the bond of harmony between the hill people and the Bangalees by making the Chattogram Hill Tracts (CHT) peace accord and the Chattogram Hill Tracts (CHT) Affairs Ministry.
“Ziaur Rahman had created rifts between the hill people and the Bangalees. But Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has established the bond of harmony between them. Now, there is no crisis of confidence between them, rather harmony has been created. T All the isolated incidents take place due to extortion only,” he said.
The minister said these while addressing the triennial conference of Krishak League (KL) of the district unit at Khagrachari Government College ground here, reports BSS.
Hasan said a vast change has taken place in all sectors in the hill and plain areas under the dynamic leadership of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. The position of the country in size is 92nd while its position is third in producing paddy, second or third in fresh water fish, fourth in vegetables, second in mango and first in producing Hilsha across the globe, he added.
It has been possible only for Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and for her magical leadership, said Hasan, also Awami League joint general secretary.
But, the minister said, BNP’s fugitive leader Tarique Rahman cannot tolerate the changes while Begum Khaleda Zia feels chest pain.  
He said BNP knocked itself down while trying to topple the government. The base of Awami League is rooted deeply and it is a party of mass people, farmers and laborers, he said, adding, “We didn’t lease the street to anyone. We remain on the streets and will be in future too.”
