'BNP is against spirit of Amar Ekushey, Liberation War'

Awami League General Secretary and Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader today said Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) is against the spirit of Amar Ekushey and the Liberation War. 

“Those, who do not believe in the spirit of Ekhushey, do not believe in the spirit of the 1971 Liberation War,” he said in his opening speech at a discussion, reports BSS.

Bangladesh Awami League organised the discussion at Bangabandhu International Conference Centre (BICC) in the capital on the occasion of Shaheed Dibash and International Mother Language Day. 

AL President and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina presided over the meeting. 
Quader said the democracy of Bangladesh, the spirit of Ekushey and the values of the Liberation War are not safe under the reign of arson terrorists. 

This evil force is the poison of communalism, while BNP is the sponsor of militancy in the country, he said. 

The AL general secretary said the ideal of the independence is never safe under the rule of BNP and the lives of innocent people and the honor of decent women are not safe under the party too.
