Mentioning that BNP has started terrorist activities again, Information and Broadcasting Minister Dr Hasan Mahmud on Saturday said that Bangladesh cannot be handed over to the patron of terrorists.
The minister said these while addressing the tri-annual conference of Chittagong North District Bangladesh Krishak League, held at Chittagong Engineers Institution as chief guest.
“Those who used to snatch money from people by building Hawa Bhaban, who installed poles without providing electricity, who attacked grenades on August 21st, who created ‘Bangla Bhai' all over the country and killed people, We can't hand over the country to those terrorists,” he said.
“Tarique Rahman means the son of corruption and five times champion in corruption. If someone is asked who is the biggest thief of Hawa Bhaban?, the answer is Tarique Zia” he said.
“If BNP comes back to power, they will peel the skin off everyone's back. We can't hand over the country to them, so everyone should be united,” he added.
North District Krishak League President Nazrul Islam Chowdhury presided over the function while Krishak League president agriculturist Samir Chand inaugurated the conference.
Chittagong North District Awami League President MA Salam, its General Secretary Sheikh Ataur Rahman, newly elected Zilla Parisad Chairman ATM Pearul Islam, Central Krishak League leader Akbar Ali Chowdhury, Rezaul Karim Reza, among others, addressed the function as special guests.
Earlier in the morning, Dr Hasan Mahmud, also the joint general secretary of Awami League, visited Chittagong's historic Pologround where Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina will address the public meeting on December 4 as the chief guest.
