Chittagong Bureau

Some 290 pujamabdaps in Chittagong will be guarded day and night in coordination with BNP

BNP Central Committee Organizing Secretary and Divisional Coordinator Mahbub Rahman Shamim said this.

He said, Bangladesh's democracy is still not free from danger. In such a situation, we all have to be unitedly vigilant so that no evil forces can conspire.

Men of the fallen government are trying to create a communal situation in the country to divert public opinion. But they will not be allowed to succeed in anything. Chittagong Metropolitan BNP will provide full cooperation to celebrate Durga Puja, the biggest religious festival of Hindus in a safe and peaceful atmosphere. A volunteer team consisting of BNP will be formed to guard 290 places of worship day and night in Chittagong.

He said these things in his speech as the chief guest at the Chittagong Metropolitan BNP exchange meeting aimed at providing overall cooperation to the Hindus to complete the upcoming Autumn Durga Puja properly at the party office at Nasimon Bhavan on Wednesday afternoon.

Under the chairmanship of Chittagong Metropolitan BNP convener Alhaj Ershad Ullah and under the direction of member secretary Nazimur Rahman, BNP central committee co-organizing secretary VP Harunur Rashid and barrister Mir Mohammad Helal Uddin spoke as special guests.

Meanwhile, Mahbuber Rahman Shamim wished all the Hindus of Chittagong on the occasion of Autumn Durga Puja and said that no one is a minority in Bangladesh by religious identity, everyone is a Bangladeshi. There is no alternative to establishing the rule of law in the state and society in order to ensure the rights and safety of every citizen irrespective of caste, creed, party, religion.

In the speech of the special guest, VP Harunur Rashid said that the highest religious festival of Sanatani will be celebrated in a more festive atmosphere than before. Acting Chairman of BNP, Deshanayak Tariq Rahman has instructed the leaders and activists that the leaders and activists should stand by the traditionalists as a united team in every pavilion.

In the speech of the special guest, Barrister Mir Helal said that since the fall of the fastid Awami League government, they have been making various conspiracies against the country. On the occasion of the upcoming autumn Durga Puja, that evil force has started a new conspiracy. It is trying to undermine the reputation of Bangladesh in the outside world. So this time too the students along with BNP will resist their conspiracy.

In the president's speech, Ershad Ullah said that the friends of fallen fascism had repeatedly tried to create chaos in peaceful Chittagong by religious incitement. But the conscious people of Chittagong did not fall into the conspirators' trap and will not in the future. BNP leaders and activists are ready to prevent any conspiracy to protect communal harmony. BNP leaders and activists will coordinate with Sanatani brothers.

Nazimur Rahman said, Awami League's politics is the politics of division. They have always tried to destabilize the country by dividing the minority or the majority. But Awami League has done the most harm to Hindus.
