President Abdul Hamid on Monday said urged the government and the political parties to stay beside people irrespective of political mindset.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhen the government and political party work for people with honesty and sincerity, the nation achieves progress and wellbeing. If we can stay beside people irrespective of political mindset in order to fulfill their basic needs, it will bring about a new chapter in the politics of Bangladesh. This will be the best achievement of Mujib Borsho.\u201d<\/p>\n
He made the remarks while addressing a program titled \u201cMujib Chirantan\u201d marking the 50 years of Independence and the birth centenary celebration of Father of Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.<\/p>\n
President of Nepal Bidya Devi Bhandari attended the event as Guest of Honour while President Abdul Hamid and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina received the Nepali president at the venue. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina presided over the program while the President of Nepal delivered a statement on the theme of \u201cNepal-Bangladesh Relations and Bangabandhu\u2019s Birth Centenary. Hamid recalled with deep appreciation the unstinting moral and material support that the political leaders and people of Nepal extended to Bangladesh during our War of Liberation in 1971. Nepal was one of the pioneer countries to recognize Bangladesh in January, 1972 , said Hamid adding that in recognition of the support, in 2012 and 2013, Bangladesh honoured 11 distinguished Nepali nationals as Friends of Bangladesh.<\/p>\n
Mentioning the celebration of Mujib Borsho as an appropriate attempt in order to disseminate the life, thoughts and political philosophies of Bangabandhu to all, the president said there is no scope to separate Bangabandhu and Bangladesh.<\/p>\n
“Let Bangladesh move ahead towards a hunger and poverty-free status, with the ideals of the Father of the Nation and the spirit of the War of Liberation,” he said.<\/p>\n
Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman is an institution, an entity, a history, not a name said Hamid adding: “As long as there will be Bangladesh, there will be Bangali people, Bangabandhu will remain as the source of inspiration till that day as he has enlightened the whole world as a guiding star for the emancipation of the oppressed and exploited people.<\/p>\n
He also asked the concerned to take steps so that our future generations grow up imbued with the principles and ideals of Bangabandhu and the spirit of the War of Liberation.<\/p>\n
