Liberation War
People must recall Bangabandhu's role
Says Prof Anisuzzaman
Denying that Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was the leader of the country's Liberation War is more dreadful than his killing, said noted educationist Prof Emeritus Anisuzzaman yesterday.
“The propaganda against Bangabandhu and the denial of his contribution to the Liberation War by a section of people after his killing are more outrageous,” he said at a discussion.
Bangabandhu Parishad and Swadhinata Chikitsak Parishad of Birdem hospital unit jointly organised the discussion on National Mourning Day marking the 37th martyrdom of Bangabandhu at the hospital's auditorium.
Addressing as the chief guest at the programme, Prof Anisuzzaman also said people of all walks of life had took part in the Liberation War and the country's reconstruction after independence under the leadership of Bangabandhu.
People must recall the contributions of Bangabandhu to be respectful to the history, he said adding that following the ideology of the great leader and committing crimes cannot go together.
The criminals who were involved in committing crimes against humanity during the liberation war must be tried to establish the rule of law in the country, said Prof Anisuzzaman.
Cherishing the spirit of Liberation War and the Bangabandhu's ideology can be recalled by recognising his contributions to the nation, said Liberation War Museum trustee Dr Sarowar Ali.
Birdem hospital unit Bangabandhu Parishad president Prof Mir Nazrul Islam chaired the function, while Prof AK Azad Khan, president of Diabetic Association of Bangladesh, Awami Legaue leader Abu Naser, among others, also spoke on the occasion.
