Prime Minister and Awami League President Sheikh Hasina urged the leaders and activists to give top priority to strengthening the party and said that the trust and faith of the people is the biggest strength of Awami League.
He told the party leaders and workers that you must give top priority to strengthening the party. This is my request to you.
Sheikh Hasina said this while exchanging greetings with party leaders and workers at Ganobhaban today after being elected as the president of Awami League for the 10th time. Khabar- Basas.
He further said that we have no power except the trust and faith of the people. We believe only in people power.
The Prime Minister said that if Awami League can properly guide the people, then no one can stop the development of the country.
Awami League chief emphasized on setting up party office in every district upazila.
He said that the Central Awami League will help the local Awami League units to set up their offices, if they are unable. It is necessary for the party to have an office in each district and upazila.
He further said that we have established Digital Bangladesh. We have the opportunity to communicate with the whole country through online. So why will Awami League lag behind in this case? I want to develop an institutional system to facilitate communication at the district and upazila levels.
Emphasizing the appointment of new members to strengthen the party, he said, “We will form eight new parties in eight divisions.” They will take care of recruiting new members.
He said, Awami League is the only party which has grown from the soil and people of this country. But BNP and Jatiya Party came from the pocket of military rulers, who illegally seized state power in violation of the constitution. Because of this they have no responsibility towards the people. Since Awami League is responsible for shaping the destiny of the people, every leader and activist of Awami League has a responsibility in this regard.
He said, considering the unstable economic situation of the world, I have agreed to take the leadership of the party this time.
Sheikh Hasina also said that it is definitely not right to take responsibility for one person so many times. But I have taken this responsibility in the current world reality. You must remember that I am also getting older.
He reiterated the importance of using every inch of arable land in the country to increase production to avoid any untoward situation due to Corona pandemic, Russia-Ukraine war, sanctions and counter-sanctions.
The prime minister said that due to these reasons economic recession is engulfing the world. Many rich countries have already declared themselves in recession. Bangladesh must not fall into that trap. Rather, if we can produce excess food, we can export it to different countries even if we meet our own needs.
Sheikh Hasina said that many countries have already expressed their desire to import food from Bangladesh. We especially Awami League leaders and workers have to work like that.
