Awami League (AL) General Secretary Obaidul Quader yesterday warned that since the game of elec-tions is over now, a new game of politics would begin against communalism, militancy, arson terrorism and corruption.
He came up with the warning while speaking at a public rally at Suhrawardy Udyan in the capital.
Bangladesh Awami League arranged the rally marking the historic Homecoming Day of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.
AL President Sheikh Hasina presided over the rally.
Addressing the rally, Quader said the AL is going to join a new game of politics against communalism, militancy, corruption, terrorism and arson sabotage.
Claiming that the BNP’s future is only dark because of its politics of mistakes, he said: “The game of elections was ended on January 7 last. BNP is a fake party. Its progarmmes, leaders and one-point movement are fake ones…their (BNP) future is only dark.”
Recalling the home return of Bangabandhu on January 10 in 1972, the AL general secretary said the he-ro of the history, Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, has been remembered on this day as Bangladesh achieved its independence as a result of his sacrifice and long pursuit.
Bangabandhu added Bangladesh to the world map, he added.
The AL general secretary said the Bangabandhu’s daughter, Sheikh Hasina, lit up the stage of yesterday’s rally, while she has been elected as the AL’s parliamentary party leader.
He said Sheikh Hasina will take oath as the country’s prime minister at Bangabhaban today, while she is the architect of Bangladesh’s transformation and bearer of Bangabandhu’s dream.
“She is the sun of the east and our beacon of hope. She is the golden resort to our courage. She is the symbol of our extreme courage and bravery,” Quader said.
