Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina yesterday urged the country’s people to reject those involved in the politics of destruction and hand them over to law enforcers, saying the government is determined to take stern actions against these evil forces.
“I’ll request you to reject those doing the politics of destruction, say no to them, hand them over to law enforcement agencies,” she said.
The prime minister was addressing a rally at Nawabganj Government College ground.
Earlier in the day, the prime minister inaugurated the much-awaited Sheikh Hasina Bridge (2nd Mohananda Bridge) on the Mohananda river. She opened the bridge by unveiling its plaque, which was followed by a munajat.
Later, Sheikh Hasina inaugurated five development projects and laid the foundation stones of four others.
The development projects are newly-constructed Youth Training Centre at Shibtala in Chapainawabganj town, academic building of Birshreshtha Shaheed Captain Mohiuddin Jahangir College at Swarupnagar, Chapainawabganj Eye Hospital, sub-station of Bangladesh Institute of Nuclear Agriculture (BINA) in the district town and Gomostapur Upazila Fire Station.
She also laid the foundation stone of a new building of Chapainawabganj Sadar Hospital for upgrading it to 250-bed hospital from the 100-bed, one development work of Kansat-Rahanpur-Bholahat Road, a project for protecting Alatuli area of the district from erosion by the Padma River and the Chapainawabganj 100-megawatt power plant project.
The prime minister inaugurated and laid the foundation stones of the development projects by unveiling their plaques from Nawabganj Government College ground.
At the rally, Sheikh Hasina said the BNP-Jamaat nexus is always engaged in the politics of destruction and killing. “We want to give them a good lesson so that they never try to do such politics in the country,” she said.
Describing BNP and Jamaat as the synonym of destruction, terrorism and killing, she said, “This politics of killing won’t be tolerated in Bangladesh… those trying to destroy the country will be shown no mercy and their trial will surely be held on Bangladesh soil,” she said.
The prime minister also observed that the BNP-Jamaat clique is trying their heart and soul to destroy the country at a time when it is moving forward under Awami League leadership. “They’re the enemy of people, they’re the enemy of humanity,” she added.
