At this time they said that the people of Bangladesh have always struggled for democracy. Sheikh Hasina has run a stream roller on the people for 16 years. After a long struggle we are free today. Ziaur Rahman introduced multi-party democracy from one-party rule.
Hundreds of people disappeared and tortured in 16 years. Chhatra Dal Jubo Dal leaders and activists protested in Dhaka city. Today, students’ movement has created an opportunity to establish democracy. We will not let it go to waste. You, the people, must guard democracy. We have to protect this democracy even with breast blood.
BNP National Standing Committee member Mirza Abbas said that a leader has not gone abroad for her leaders and workers. He said, I have no home abroad, no master abroad. If I die, I will die in this country. If I live, I will die in this country. Another went to India leaving behind his leaders and activists. Again he said he will come back to the country soon. Come, the people of this country will judge your injustice and murder.
Some arrests of Awami League have been made in these few days. People gave mass beatings wherever they found people. When we went to jail, we went like a hero. I was released from jail like a hero. But why do they beat eggs in court.
