PM renews vow to foil aim behind Bangabandhu killing
Reiterating that Khondaker Mostaq and Ziaur Rahman were the masterminds behind the conspiracy of killing Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina today said that she would never let their objectives be successful.
"I only want that the conspiracies for which the Father of the Nation was killed on August 15 (in 1975), will not be successful. Their target was to make Bangladesh a failed state alongside foiling achievements of Bangladesh's independence and destroying the ideal of the Liberation War," she told a memorial meeting joining virtually from her official Ganabhaban residence here.
Dhaka North and South City units of Awami League organized the discussion marking the National Mourning Day and the 46th martyrdom anniversary of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, at the party's central office at Bangabandhu Avenue in the capital.
