CHANDPUR: Disaster Management and Relief Minister Mofazzel Hossain Chowdhury Maya yesterday said the people should know about the life of the Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman to steer the nation towards right path of development, reports BSS.
“We have to project eventful life of Bangabandhu before the young generation to let them know about his immense contribution was to free the Bangalee nation from the shackle of subjugation," he told a discussion at the Matlab upazila in the district, an official release said.
Matlab Upazila Administration organised the discussion on the occasion of 99th birthday of Bangabandhu and National Children's Day.
Maya called upon the people of the country to build our young generation with the spirit of noble qualities so that they can materialise Bangabandhu's dream of transforming the country into "Sonar-Bangla".
Chairman of Matlab Upazila Uttar Parishad Manzur Ahmed Manju and President of Matlab Upazila Unit of Awami League (AL) Advocate Ruhul Amin, among others, addressed the discussion with the Upazila Nirbahi Officer Sharmin Akhtar in the chair. On this day in 1920, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was born in Tungipara of Gopalganj.
Through his dynamic leadership, Bangabandhu organised the Bangalee nation to fight against exploitation and repression by the Pakistani rulers. The movement culminated in independent Bangladesh through the nine-month Liberation War in 1971.
On August 15, 1975, the great leader along with most of his family members was assassinated by a disgruntled group of army men.
