No force created yet in Bangladesh to oust AL govt, PM tells JS

Prime minister Sheikh Hasina on Wednesday told the Jatiya Sangsad that no force had been created yet in Bangladesh that could topple the Awami League government as the root of the party was very deep.

‘In Bangladesh, no force has emerged yet, which can oust the Awami League government,’ she said, replying to a supplementary question from Jatiya Party lawmaker Fakhrul Imam.

Sheikh Hasina, also the president of the ruling Awami League, said that AL was a party that wasn’t born from the pocket of any illegal power-grabber and military dictator, rather its birth was from the soil and the people of this country.

‘So, our roots have deepened very much inside the soil,’ she added.

The Leader of the House mentioned that Ayub Khan, Yahya Khan, Zia, Gen Ershad and Khaleda Zia tried to destroy the Awami League but failed, she said, adding, ‘They would never be able to do so – Inshallah.’

‘When Awami League is in power, it means the government serves the people and changes the fate of the people,’ she said, asking all to remember what the condition of Bangladesh was 14 years ago.
