Prime Minister and Awami League (AL) President Sheikh Hasina has urged party leaders and workers to make necessary preparations to ensure the victory of AL-nominated candidates in the upcoming national election.
She said: "All have to work in unison to win the Awami League-nominated candidates in the next election."
Issuing the directives, Sheikh Hasina said: “Our only strength is the people."
The premier was delivering concluding remarks at the special extended meeting of Bangladesh Awami League at her official Ganabhaban residence.
She also urged her party men to highlight the development works before the people that have been implemented in every area during the last 14 and a half years of the Awami League government.
The development in Bangladesh has been possible because of Awami League is in power, she added.
Criticizing the activities of BNP and its leaders, the Awami League President said, "The birth of BNP is an outright sin. The birth of the BNP is through illegal usurpation of power, through the assassination of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, and terrorism."
Since the Awami League formed the government in 2009, she said, BNP has carried out arson terrorism, killed people, blockade programmes, and many other misdeeds. "But, no movement can harm the country and people because of Awami League is a strong organization and we are accepted by the people."
Rather, they (BNP) are gradually being questioned by people, she added.
The premier called upon all to be vigilant against rumours and misinformation, saying Awami League never bow down to anyone.
Around 5,000 party leaders and elected public representatives from the Awami League joined the meeting.
Members of Awami League central working committee, advisory council, presidents and general secretaries of districts, metropolis, upazilas and municipality units of AL, members of parliament, district and upazila parishad chairmen, city corporation and municipality mayors, and presidents and general secretaries of AL associate organizations were present in the meeting.
