State Minister of Shipping Khalid Mahmud Chowdhury said, Liberation war is our foundation. Can’t go without it. Is it wrong to call a criminal a criminal? Do not identify criminals! Their aim is to bring the country to the ground where Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has taken it in 15 years. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina is a paramount leader. No one in the world has leadership qualities like him at the moment. He is our only refuge. The aim of the miscreants was to break this resort. Because if he can be brought down, Bangladesh can be brought down.
He said all this in the president’s speech at the RADP 2023-2024 implementation progress and ADP review meeting for the fiscal year 2024-2025 in the meeting room of the Ministry of Shipping at the Secretariat on Sunday (July 28).
Giving instructions to the concerned to complete the work of the project on time, he said, I am holding the meeting today under adverse conditions. Very unfortunate for the country. Bangladesh was hailed as a humanitarian country. Appreciated and proud of the development activities of Bangladesh. Recent demonic atrocities have called this into question. These events have been propagated differently around the world; Which is sad.
He also said that when we were young, we knew that Bangladesh was a poor country. I did not understand poverty then. Now I have conquered poverty. Don’t listen to alms bag deprivation and humiliation. We have conquered poverty under the leadership of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. This victory has the cooperation of government officials and employees. We are now proud of our capabilities. Padma Bridge is proof of our capability. I reached the place of dignity through the construction of Padma Bridge. I had reached the capacity of the sea and the river.
The state minister said that the time of studentship is full of youth; Time to be unstoppable. Students will agitate with their demands. should be applauded. When government-student negotiations are at the compromise stage; Then suddenly the situation went to a certain level. The panic started. For example, in 2001-06, MPs, officials, judges, journalists, teachers were killed. The last opposition leader Sheikh Hasina was attacked with a grenade. The law of the land was blocked. The form of violence in 2009, 2010, 2013, 2014, 2015 is similar.
Khalid Mahmud Chowdhury said that under the leadership of the Law Minister, the government-student reconciliation is going on, a peaceful environment is being created, at that time the ambush took place. On the first day the students were in agitation. Later they were not part of the movement – the students said. At that time the countrymen should be urged to stop the violence. I saw the famous Nobel Laureate Dr. Yunus did not call the countrymen for peace. He called the United Nations and other places to break the state structure.
He said that development activities should be taken forward. Our goal is very close. We have to move towards our goal. I will not drown when I come to the shore. The losers of 1971 seized power after 3 and a half years. He ruled the country for 21 years. Couldn’t move the country forward. We have to be determined to move the country forward. Someone has to give up. 3 million martyrs gave their lives for the country. Our deeds will be remembered by future generations. Let that be the goal to work with commitment.
