‘Supplement govt’s goal to build Smart Bangladesh’

City Desk :
Dhaka South City Corporation (DSCC) Mayor Barrister Sheikh Fazle Noor Taposh has urged all to supplement the government’s goal for building ‘Smart Bangladesh’.

“Those, who are inspired with Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman’s ideology and life-long struggle, will have to transform the shock into power and thus supplement the government’s goal for building ‘Smart Bangladesh’ strengthening Sheikh Hasina’s hands,” he said.

The DSCC Mayor was speaking as the chief guest at a discussion and Doa Mahfil marking the 48th martyrdom anniversary of Bangabandhu and the National Mourning Day at the Officer’s Club in the capital on the twenty-second instant, reports BSS.

In a scathing attack to Ziaur Rahman, Taposh, the youngest son of martyred Sheikh Fazlul Haque Moni, said Zia was the main mastermind behind the August 15 carnage.

“It has been proved beyond reasonable doubt that Zia was one of the killers of the then President and the Father of the Nation,” he said adding Ziaur Rahman paved the way for killing Bangabandhu and most of his family members as well as ensured safety and security to the killers.

The DSCC mayor alleged that all the activities of Ziaur Rahman were against the War of Liberation and against Bangabandhu and his family.

He, choking with emotion, said those who sacrificed their lives on that fateful night of August 15 did not seek mercy for their lives, rather embraced martyrdom with bravery.

Former Senior Secretary to the Prime Minister’s Office and currently Member of Parliament from Netrakona-4 constituency Sajjadul Hassan spoke as the special guest.

Hassan is the chief adviser of the Greater Mymensingh Kormojibi Samity, Dhaka.
