Opposition out to undermine nation’s success
Making an obvious reference to the BNP, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has said a so-called opposition party wants to undermine the nation's success by spreading falsehoods, but they won't succeed.
"Unfortunately, we have a so-called opposition party which wants to spoil the success of our independence by spreading falsehoods. But they won't succeed, Insha'Allah," she said.
The premier was addressing a mammoth rally at the Circuit House ground in Mymensingh city.
Hasina, also the Awami League president, said Bangladesh is marching forward and it will continue to do so. "We will build a developed and smart Bangladesh by 2041."
The PM said a BNP leader sits before a microphone the whole day and says that the AL has destroyed Bangladesh.
Noting that she inaugurated 103 projects yesterday, Hasina asked the people of Mymensingh if those were examples of destruction.
In an oblique reference to BNP leader Tarique Rahman, Hasina said anyone can now speak, and do politics staying far away from home due to the transformation of the country into Digital Bangladesh.
She said her government raised the country's electricity generation capacity to 24,000 megawatts and reached power to every houses.
Since the AL government increased electricity generation and built the country as Digital Bangladesh, the BNP leaders can speak so much using microphone, the PM added.
The AL chief said Bangladesh has attained the status of a developing country. "We must maintain this achievement. We have to move forward retaining this success."
Explaining the features of smart Bangladesh, the PM said the people, economy, agriculture and health system of the country would be smart.
"Every people of Bangladesh will get a better life even staying at the grassroots level. Every villager will get the urban benefits."
She pledged to set up a medical and an engineering university and other required institutions in Mymensingh division to give it a complete shape.
AL General Secretary Obaidul Qauder, presidium members Matia Chowdhury and Abdur Rahman, and joint general secretaries Mahbubul Alam Hanif, AFM Bahauddin Nasim and Dipu Moni, among others, also spoke at the rally, organised by the Mymensingh district and city units of the party.
At the outset of the programme, Hasina inaugurated 73 newly completed development works and laid the foundation stones of 30 other development works in Mymensingh.
