While speaking Nanak said that nobody will be spared if any kind of conspiracy gets involved with journalism. “I urge all to stand against those who do ill-journalism in the country, reports BSS. Nanak said:”On the great Independence Day of the country, the news was published (in daily Prothom Alo) naming Sabuj as Zakir. What is the reason behind this? What is the purpose of this kind of news? This newspaper is always conspiring against the beloved leader Sheikh Hasina and the progress of Bangladesh.” Urging all to maintain morality while pursuing journalism, he said no exemption will be given if any kind of unprofessionalism is found with journalism. “Our countrymen were celebrating 52 years of independence with due dignity. Then a special news item of a national daily of the country (Prothom Alo) drew attention of the countrymen. Even after so many years of the country’s independence, we have to stand on the streets and protest against lies and yellow journalism,” he added. The function was attended, among others, by Secretary of Education and Human Resource Affairs of the organization Shamsunnahar Chapa.
