“The anti-liberation forces and the killers of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman are always active in their efforts to turn Bangladesh into a failed state.” said Prime Minister and Awami League President Sheikh Hasina.

She also said, “We all should keep in mind that Bangladesh is our country. We’ve brought the country’s independence. But, the anti-liberation forces and the killers of Bangabandhu are always out to turn Bangladesh into a failed state,”

Sheikh Hasina came out with this observation while delivering her closing remarks during the greeting exchange with her party leaders and activists at Ganabhaban a day after of her reelection as party President for the 10th consecutive terms.

She mentioned that in 29 years in two phases from 1975 to 1996 and 2001-2009, the governments who were in power during that time had tried to make the country as a failed state.

Sheikh Hasina said that now Bangladesh has attained the status of a developing country while people have got dignity as since 2009 Awami League is in power for three consecutive terms through elections getting the votes of people.

The Prime Minister said only one decision to construct the Padma Bridge with own finance has immensely brightened the image of Bangladesh in the world.

Highlighting that people are the source of power of Awami League, she said that “The general people who support us are the greatest source of power for us. So, each leader and activist will have to work for the welfare of the common people.”
