PM promises to make BD peaceful abode for all
UNB, Tungipara :
Voicing her high hope that no more people will be burned to death in the name of hartal and blockade, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Tuesday vowed to turn Bangladesh into a nice and peaceful abode for all.
“We don’t want people, including children and expectant mothers, to be burned to death. We don’t want children to fall victims to such vengeance. We want a beautiful future and a peaceful environment for all,” she said.
Hasina further said, “We want a developed and prosperous Bangladesh … we’ll leave behind a beautiful future for our children through building the country in that way, and that’s our goal.”
The Prime Minister was addressing a Children’s Rally organised on the Bangabandhu Mausoleum complex premises at Tungipara, Gopalganj marking the 96th birthday of the Father of the Nation and the National Children’s Day. Women and Children Affairs Ministry and Gopalganj district administration jointly organised the rally.
State Minister for Women and Children Affairs Meher Afroze Chumki, Secretary Tariqul Islam, Dhaka Divisional Commissioner Zillar Rahman and Gopalganj Deputy Commissioner Khalilur Rahman spoke at the programme chaired by a little girl, Ashura Islam. Another child, Manoshi Biswas, delivered the welcome address.
Hasina urged the children, teenagers and youths to become true human being after taking education properly, obtaining knowledge about the country’s rich tradition, taking part in sports and cultural activities to become good citizens of this country. “You’ll groom up yourselves in such a way so that we could move ahead at the global stage keeping our head high.”
She said, the country’s future leadership would come from the children and the youths as among them someone would become the Prime Minister, Ministers and assume positions in various important fields.
The Prime Minister said on this birthday of Bangabandhu, it should be the pledge of all to build Bangladesh as a nice abode for all alongside making it a hunger- and poverty-free ‘Sonar Bangla’ imbued with the spirit of the War of Liberation and thus materialise the dream of Bangabandhu.
Terming the assassination of Bangabandhu along with most of his family members on August 15, 1971 as a disgraceful day for the whole of nation, the Prime Minister said with his death the nation had not only lost the Father of the Nation but also the history and ideology of the War of Liberation as it had been stampeded completely.
“I’ll urge the children, teenagers and youths to build Bangladesh in light with the spirit of the War of Liberation and the ideology of our Father of the Nation. No child would remain without education on Bangladesh’s soil and they all lead a nice life,” she added.
Hasina also urged them to study with rapt attention and to be careful and passionate about the poor, hapless and the disabled.
Quoting Bangabandhu that a great sacrifice is needed for gaining a great achievement, his eldest daughter said the Father of the Nation had presented independence to the nation and dedicated his life. “Now our duty is to make this independence fruitful.”
