Awami League Advisory Council Member Amir Hossain Amu yesterday called upon the women to stand united against the communal forces.
"Women will have to stand against them who want to suppress and women have to be united against communal forces," he made the call at a discussion on the 39th martyrdom of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and National Mourning Day in front of the party central office at Bangabandhu Avenue.
Awami Jubo Mohila League (AJML) organized the discussion, while president of the organization former lawmaker Nazma Akter presideed over. The programme was also addressed, among others, by Railway Minister M Mazibul Hoque, general secretary of AJML Apu Ukil, vice president Zakia Parveen and lawmaker Sabina Akter Tuhin.
Amu, also industries minister said people of Bangladesh are god-fearing, but not fanatic, adding, "All the people of the country irrespective of cast, creed and religion are now united to build a non-communal Bangladesh under the dynamic leadership of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina."
People of the country particularly women have to remain alert so that no conspiracy designed by the evil forces would not be materialized in the sacred soil, the minister said.
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina is working for women's development; he said women would have to resist them who assumed to power by misguiding women in the name of religion.
The senior AL leader also urged Jubo Mohila League leaders and workers to aware women across the country and protest such of these propagandas.
