Muslims from Bangladesh

"One day our grandchildren will go to museums to see what poverty was like."

"If you are born into a poor family, if you are a woman you have seen the worst of poverty. In a cultural way in the families in Bangladesh it's the women who eats last. So if you have a scarcity in the family … she misses out so everything comes in the raw deal for her. So, given a chance she works very hard to make a change to improve her life. And by training she is the most efficient manager of scarce resources. Because with the little resource she has, she has to stretch it as much as she can to look after the children, look after the family and everything else..unlike men - men want to enjoy right away. Whatever he got, whatever tiny bit of thing he got he doesn't care for much what's coming up."

"'I believe that "government", as we know it today, should pull out of most things except for law enforcement and justice, national defense and foreign policy, and let the private sector, a "Grameenized private sector", a social-consciousness-driven private sector, take over their other functions.'"

"To me poor people are like bonsai trees. When you plant the best seed of the tallest tree in a flower-pot, you get a replica of the tallest tree, only inches tall. There is nothing wrong with the seed you planted, only the soil-base that is too inadequate. Poor people are bonsai people. There is nothing wrong in their seeds. Simply, society never gave them the base to grow on. All it needs to get the poor people out of poverty for us to create an enabling environment for them. Once the poor can unleash their energy and creativity, poverty will disappear very quickly."

"Poor people always pay back their loans. It's us, the creators of institutions and rules, who keep creating trouble for them."

"The poor themselves can create a poverty-free world — all we have to do is to free them from the chains that we have put around them."

"Poverty has been created by the economic and social system that we have designed for the world. It is the institutions that we have built, and feel so proud of, which created poverty."

"I will not spend the money for myself. I will rather spend it in special business on a no-profit-no-loss policy. We will also establish an eye hospital where even beggars will be given treatment at the cost of Taka 10-20."

"We will make yogurt with all kinds of nutritious elements. We want to provide nutrition to the poor and children."

"All human beings have an innate skill — survival skill. The fact that poor are still alive is a proof of their ability to survive. We do not need to teach them how to survive. They know this already."

"Always remember, job is a wrong idea. Don't ever look for a job, always tell yourself that I'm a job creator. I'm not a job seeker, I'm a job creator. So be a job creator."

"What happens to the rest of the world? It’s as if the rest of the world will be forgotten... This is a vaccine that is needed by 8 billion people. What happens to poor people? What happens to poor countries who cannot afford to pay the prices that they’ll be charging in the rich countries? With social business, shareholders don’t want to make any profit out of it so no dividend is taken from the company and we can reduce the cost and produce anywhere."

"I believe that, ultimately, the only way to definitively eradicate the pandemic is to have a vaccine that can be administered to all inhabitants of the planet... The effectiveness of the upcoming vaccination campaign will depend on its universality. To ensure the availability of the vaccines to all people on the planet almost at the same time, it has to be free from ownership. To do so we intend to make a global pharmaceutical social business operational as soon as possible. I am looking for partners to help us achieve this goal... It has to be freed from commercial interest. The polio vaccine was declared as a common good, not owned by anybody. Why not (have) the corona vaccine follow the same path?"

"To overcome poverty and the flaws of the economic crisis in our society, we need to envision our social life. We have to free our mind, imagine what has never happened before and write social fiction. We need to imagine things to make them happen. If you don't imagine, it will never happen."

"The direct elimination of poverty should be the objective of all development aid. Development should be viewed as a human rights issue, not as a question of simply increasing the gross national product GNP."

"Human being is a fighter, human being is a creator."

"Abu Sayed is no longer a member of just one family. He is the child of all families in Bangladesh. The children who will grow up and attend school and college will know about Abu Sayed and will say to themselves, 'I too will fight for justice.' Abu Sayed is now in every home."

"NGOs are a force. We must realize the dreams of our youth."

"You cannot change the world in a day...if you want to change, start from your village."

"Making money from business is happiness, but making other people happy is super happiness."

"... culture is useless unless it is constantly challenged by counter culture. People create culture; culture creates people. It is a two-way street. When people hide behind a culture, you know that's a dead culture."

"This attack is not only on Hadi, this attack is on the existence of whole Bangladesh."

"A WORD FROM NOBEL LAUREATE MUHAMMAD YUNUS: (in video) Thank you so much for clicking on me. I am Muhammad Yunus, founder of the Grameen Bank, and, oh yeah, I'm also the winner of the Nobel Peace Prize. To find an entrepreneur you want to lend to, click on my nose... if you can catch it. It's up here! Now down here! Too slow! Okay, I'll hold still. No, I won't. Ha-ha! Good-bye!"

"Nobel peace laureate Desmond Tutu and actor George Clooney are among more than 100 people who have signed an appeal for COVID-19 vaccines to be declared a global common good and made widely available. The appeal is led by the founder of the microcredit movement Muhammad Yunus, also a Nobel peace prize winner, who said some pharmaceutical companies had declared vaccines would be provided to rich countries in Europe and the United States first. There is currently no vaccine against COVID-19, but more than 100 are in development around the world as drugmakers race to combat the pandemic that has killed more than 500,000 people globally. Yunus said he was also planning to create an open-source company to produce vaccines around the world and was open to discussion with governments and pharmaceutical companies on how to set it up."

"The only way to contain the coronavirus pandemic is to have COVID-19 vaccines free from commercial interests, Bangladeshi Nobel Peace Prize laureate Muhammad Yunus told Arab News in an exclusive interview, as over 100 statesmen, academics, activists and religious leaders joined his campaign to declare coronavirus vaccines a global common good... Vaccine research requires huge investments and many laboratories in the private sector are engaged in it. Yunus urged the World Health Organization (WHO) to design an action plan to put the vaccine into the public domain...."

"The “Declare COVID-19 Vaccine a Global Common Good Now” campaign launched by Yunus on Sunday has already gained the support of 19 Nobel Prize laureates, including Archbishop Desmond Tutu, Malala Yousafzai, Iranian political activist and lawyer Shirin Ebadi, Poland’s first democratically elected president Lech Walesa, British molecular biologist Sir Richard John Roberts, and former Soviet Union president Mikhail Gorbachev. Yunus said he was expecting a huge response from global leaders to ensure that, in the case of a COVID-19 vaccine, there would be consensus for free universal access. He warned that this would not happen as long as the vaccine remained a commercial product owned by companies... As of Friday (3 July 2020), 112 former presidents, prime ministers, business leaders, artists and social activists joined his mission. Everyone can support the initiative through the website www.vaccinecommongood.org."

"When my footprints would not fall in the Jamuna (residence of chief adviser of Interim government of Bangladesh), I would neither stay, I would neither stay in that government's chair anymore, dear.. When my footprints would not fall in the Jamuna, I will pay off all the statements and settle them, dear. I will settle the debts, wandering will be stopped of this mob. Then you might let not have to put me in drone (show). Looking into the mirror, you let not have to call me. When my footprints would not fall in the Jamuna."

"a man who long ago should have won the Nobel Prize [in Economics and] I’ll keep saying that until they finally give it to him."

"Muhammad Yunus has shown himself to be a leader who has managed to translate visions into practical action for the benefit of millions of people, not only in Bangladesh, but also in many other countries. Loans to poor people without any financial security had appeared to be an impossible idea. From modest beginnings three decades ago, Yunus has, first and foremost through Grameen Bank, developed micro-credit into an ever more important instrument in the struggle against poverty."

"We gave blood in 1952, we won a mandate in 1954. But we were not allowed to take up the reins of this country. In 1958, Ayub Khan clamped Martial Law on our people and enslaved us for the next 10 years. In 1966, our people fought for the Six points but the lives of our our young men and women were stilled by government bullets."

"I had said, Mr. Yahya Khan, you are the President of this country. Come to Dhaka, come and see how our poor Bengali people have been mown down by your bullets, how the laps of our mothers and sisters have been robbed and left empty and bereft, how my helpless people have been slaughtered. Come, I said, come and see for yourself and then be the judge and decide. That is what I told him."

"Nor did they succeed in hanging me on the gallows, for you rescued me with your blood from the infamous conspiracy case. That day, right here on this racecourse, I had pledged to you that I would pay this debt with my own blood. Do you remember? I am ready today to fulfill that promise!"

"There shall be no transaction between East and West Pakistan. All communications, telegraph and telephone, will be confined within Bangladesh. The people of this land are facing elimination. If need be, we will bring everything to a total standstill. Collect your salaries on time. If the salaries are held up, if a single bullet is fired upon us henceforth, if the murder of my people does not cease, I call upon you to turn every home into a fortress against their onslaught. Use whatever you can put your hands on to confront this enemy. Every last road must be blocked."

"As we have already learned how to sacrifice our own lives, now no one can stop us!"

"As we have already shed blood, we are ready to shed more blood!"

"This time the struggle is for our freedom, this time the struggle is for our independence! Joy bangla!"

"Sir, you will see that they want to place the word ‘East Pakistan’ instead of ‘East Bengal’. We have demanded so many times that you should use Bengal instead of Pakistan. The world Bengal has a history, has a tradition of its own. You can change it only after the people have been consulted. If you want to change it, then we have to go back to Bengal and see whether Bengalis will accept it."

"You know, they can't keep me here for more than six months."

"Anyone who wishes to stay in Bangladesh will have to talk to Sheikh Mujibur Rahman."

"The people of East Pakistan will owe it to the million who have died in the cyclone to make the supreme sacrifice of another million lives, if need be, so that we can live as a free people."

"I have given you independence, now go and preserve it."

"This may be my last message. From today Bangladesh is independent. I call upon the people of Bangladesh wherever you are and with whatever you have, to resist the occupation army. Our fight will go on till the last soldier of the Pakistan Occupation Army is expelled from the soil of independent Bangladesh. Final victory is ours. Joy Bangla!"

"My greatest strength is the love for my people, my greatest weakness is that I love them too much."

"If we had remained in Pakistan, it would be a strong country. Again, if India had not been divided in 1947, it would be an even stronger country. But, then, Mr. President, in life do we always get what we desire?"

"We believe that if we can establish a non-communal state in East Bengal, then West Bengal, Assam, and Tripura, which are currently ruled and oppressed by Hindi-speaking people, will one day be willing to join an independent Bangladesh."

"I am happy with my Bangladesh."

"Yes, but there is a difference. You see, I am a very poor sheikh."

"He (Mujib) was just out of prison, he seemed full of bit­terness, and this time we were almost able to talk quietly. He said how East Pakistan was exploited by West Pakistan, treated like a colony, sucked of its blood—and it was very true; I’d even written the same thing in a book. But he didn’t draw any conclusions, he didn’t explain that the fault was in the economic system and in the regime, he didn’t speak of socialism and struggle. On the contrary, he declared that the people weren’t prepared for struggle, that no one could oppose the military, that it was the military that had to resolve the injustices. He had no courage. He never has had. Does he really call himself, to journalists, the »Tiger of the Bengal«?"

"Honorable Speaker, who has slandered our leader's family here... (: ((loudly addressing the excited MPs of the ruling party (Awami League) while seated) sit, sit,... You have done a lot of exaggeration..) is a Political Prostitute, Hon'ble Speaker. Calcutta civil court's lawer Mr. Chandidas. (Excited uproar among government MPs) He had a daughter named Gouribala Das. Chandidas' Assistant Advocate Mr. Chandidas (Syeda Papia: (from the side) go on reading) used to travel regularly. On this occasion, Aranya Kumar Chakraborty had an illicit relationship with Gauribala. (Papia: read on read on..read on..yeah) (Government party members get more excited) Gouribala pressures Aranya Kumar to marry her when she realizes that she is pregnant. Aranya Kumar does not agree to this and denies the illicit relationship. Meanwhile Chandidas got worried after knowing the matter. Meanwhile Gouribala gave birth to a son on 12/12/1920. He was named Devdas Chakraborty. (Syeda Papia: (shouting support from the side) YOOOOO...(keeps pounding on the table.)) Chandidas keeps pressuring Aranya Kumar Chakraborty to marry Gouribala, (Syeda Papia: (slamming the table with support) Keep reading, keep reading...keep reading, keep catching...don't ever stop...yeah) but Aranya Kumar refused. Meanwhile, Devdas's age increased by 2 years. Chandidas became depressed and felt very ill. when (: (addressing excited parliamentarians of the ruling party) honorable members, calm down.. (addressing Rehana Akhter Ranu) honorable member) Devdas was 3 years old, Chandidas's Muhuri Sheikh Lutfur Rahman (father of Mujib) married Gouribala. (The mic turned off) (Shirin Sharmin Chowdhury: Honorable members, I call your attention, honorable members, sit down, everyone, sit down, sit down. Honorable member, I call your attention. Honorable member, you speak on the budget following Rule 270. Give her the mic.) Thank you, Honorable Speaker, for asking me to speak on the budget. But the speech that was given on the last twenty (June), I want to ask you question, was it budget speech?"

"“Mujib’s very appearance suggested raw power,” cabled Blood, “a power drawn from the masses and from his own strong personality.” He was tall and sturdy, with rugged features and intense eyes. Blood found him serene and confident amid the turmoil, but eager for power. “On the rostrum he is a fiery orator who can mesmerize hundreds of thousands in a pouring rain,” Blood wrote. “Mujib has something of a messianic complex which has been reinforced by the heady experience of mass adulation. He talks of ‘my people, my land, my forests, my rivers.’ It seems clear that he views himself as the personification of Bengali aspirations.”"

"Poet of Politics"

"I have not seen the Himalayas. But I have seen Sheikh Mujib. In personality and in courage, this man is the Himalayas. I have thus had the experience of witnessing the Himalayas."

"The appearance of Sheikh Mujib was the biggest event in the national history of Bangladesh. His burial did not take place through his death. More pragmatic, efficient, capable and dynamic political personalities than Sheikh Mujibur Rahman might have emerged or may emerge, but it will be very difficult to find someone who has contributed more to the independence movement of Bangladesh and the shaping of its national identity."

"A man of vitality and vehemence, Mujib became the political Gandhi of the Bengalis, symbolizing their hopes and voicing their grievances. Not even Pakistan's founder, Mohammed Ali Jinnah, drew the million-strong throngs that Mujib has attracted in Dacca. Nor, for that matter, has any subcontinent politician since Gandhi's day spent so much time behind bars for his political beliefs."

"As long as Padma, Meghna, Gouri, Jamuna flows on, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, your accomplishment will also live on."

"In the thousand year history of Bengal, Sheikh Mujib is her only leader who has, in terms of blood, race, language, culture and birth, been a full blooded Bengali. His physical stature was immense. His voice was redolent of thunder. His charisma worked magic on people. The courage and charm that flowed from him made him a unique superman in these times."

"Sheikh Mujibur Rahman does not belong to Bangladesh alone. He is the harbinger of freedom for all Bengalis. His Bengali nationalism is the new emergence of Bengali civilization and culture. Mujib is the hero of the Bengalis, in the past and in the times that are."

"In a sense, Sheikh Mujib is a greater leader than George Washington, Mahatma Gandhi and De Valera."

"I could tell you about Mujib Rahman, who, again at Dacca, had ordered his guerillas to eliminate me as a dangerous European, and lucky for me an English colonel saved me at the risk of his life."

"And she describes Mujibur Rahman, prime minister of Bangladesh, as a madman. She writes that he sprawls on the couch, intent on saying things that make no sense. When she asks him about the massacres of opposition protesters arrested by his men, he erupts. The article she sends to the newspaper is accompanied by these words: “Dear editor. I went to Dacca, where you sent me. I wish you hadn’t. That Mujib is not serious. Nor would it be serious to write up an interview with him. So I won’t. Just look at my notes. Do what you like with them. Affectionately yours.”"

"For those who doubt that freedom and self-determination are the most powerful forces at work in the world today, let them come to Bangladesh. I have come here to say that America cares. I have come to learn from the father of your country, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. I have come to talk again with those who have suffered so much in the refugee camps, and to ask what my fellow countrymen and I can do to ease the pain of those who have survived and have done so much to preserve freedom."

"Saluting an icon of democracy, a towering personality and a great friend of India, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman."

"Also, the Nixon administration privately rebuked Yahya when he launched a secret treason trial for Mujib, which seemed likely to end with his execution—and an explosion of Indian outrage, possibly even war. This trial iced any hopes of political reconciliation with the Bengali nationalists. Even Nixon was shocked. “Why did he do that?” he asked Kissinger in amazement. “He’s a big, honorable, stupid man,” said Kissinger. “For Christ sakes,” Nixon said. “He can’t do that.” The next day, Kissinger was more sanguine: “If he won’t shoot him, I think we can survive it.” Nixon asked, “Did you tell him not to shoot him?” Kissinger replied, “I tell you, the Pakistanis are fine people”—at this point the tape is bleeped out on purported grounds of national security."

"Towards the end of his rule, Mujib made frequent references to Islam in his speeches and public utterances by using terms and idioms which were peculiar mainly to the Islam-oriented Bangladeshi— like Allah (the Almighty God), Insha Allah (God willing), Bismillah (in the name of God), Tawaba (Penitence) and Imam (religious leader). As days passed on Shiekh Mujib even dropped his symbolic valedictory expression Joy Bangla (Glory to Bengal) and ended his speeches with Khuda Hafez (May God protect you), the traditional Indo-Islamic phrase for bidding farewell. In his later day speeches, he also highlighted his efforts to establish cordial relations with the Muslim countries in the Middle East."

"Ten years after Mujib's death his daughter, Hasina, told me that she could not get tine agreement of relatives and neighbors in their home village of Tungipara to erect a suitable monument over Mujib's grave."

"Shiekh Mujibur Rahman, first President of Bangladesh who was popularly recognised as Bangabandhu (Friend of Bengal) and father of the nation revived Islamic Academy (which was banned in 1972) and upgraded to Foundation (in March 1975) and increasingly attended Islamic gatherings. He also banned sale and consumption of liquor, though production of liquor continued and ban on betting with specific reference to horse-race. The recognition of OIC membership (February 1974), sudden decision to participate at OIC conference in Lahore, Pakistan (1974), diplomatic ties with Pakistan, unconditional pardon of the occupational forces of Pakistan involved in war crimes on innocent people, especially women and their subsequent safe repatriation, securing the founder membership of Islamic Development Bank (1975), were interpreted by political critics that Mujib stood at a confused crossroads."

"From now on, you will use the lethal weapon, shoot everyone you get. Wherever you see gathering from above... now I am making the (shooting) done from above, from the helicopter, it has already been started."

"Rumors have been spread during the movement that Sheikh Hasina has fled. But I want to tell you that Sheikh Hasina has not fled, never flees."

"No one stay here."

"No one knows the pain of losing a loved one more than I do."

"I am indeed rather residing very close to the country, so that I may probably silently enter by lucky chance at any time."

"If the grandchildren of the freedom fighters do not get job, then will the grandchildren of Razakar get it? My question is to the countrymen. Razakar's grandchildren will get jobs, will freedom fighters grandshildren not get job? what is their fault?"

"Responding to a question from reporters on quota reform"

"The price of brinjal has gone above 110 taka. It has now come down to 80 taka. Instead of making brinjal fritters with brinjal, you can make it with other vegetables that are easily available. That's what we eat. 'You can make a very good brinjal fritters with sweet pumpkin instead of brinjal. We do it like this. That's how it can be done."

"Khaleda Zia said, "The Padma Bridge is being built in charlatan process, it will not rise there, it will collapse if you climb." And the one who has stopped the money of the bridge like Padma Bridge for the post of MD (Muhammad Yunus) should also be given two dunks in the Padma river and again put him on the bridge. Don't let him die. Then if they may be taught."

"Like East Timor, they will carve out a Christian country taking parts of Bangladesh [Chattogram] and Myanmar with a base in the Bay of Bengal." Sheikh Hasina, the Awami League president, said in a meeting on Thursday, reported The Daily Star. It was the 14-party alliance's first meeting with the Awami League president after polls. "The offer came from a white man," Sheikh Hasina said without revealing any details. "It may appear that it is aimed at only one country, but it is not. I know where else they intend to go," she said that there will be more trouble but she is not worried about it. "If I allowed a certain country to build an airbase in Bangladesh, then I would have had no problem."

"Since my last tenure we have been trying to find the root causes of poverty and how we could reduce it. We wanted to ensure food security so we put all our force into producing more food and also the distribution system so that food should first reach to the poorest of the poor. Then we tried to create job opportunities for them in the rural areas."

"What do you want, that I should start crying, ‘Oh, crisis, we have a crisis!’ Do you want that?"

"I am urging the (BNP) leader to stop these bomb and grenade attacks, these acts of sabotage, and killings, of arson and damage to property."

"The path you are following will not bring any benefit for the people. Instead you will lose public faith and confidence."

"We want to come out of the vicious circle of unhealthy politics."

"Maintaining decency, we could go anywhere and do all of our works -- Islam gives that liberty and scope to women ...women have to create their own fate and work out their own future."

"[The fundamentalist groups] are trying, no doubt about it, and there are some people trying to encourage them, but we have controlled the situation."

"My job is to assist the common people, I do politics for the people, not for me ... People are enjoying democracy now."

"All the democratic institutions are working and people are satisfied and people are enjoying it. So the way you say I am dominating, I am not dominating. I am serving people."

"World leaders should keep their word, particularly the developed countries."

"My priority is to establish this country as a poverty-free country, we have a long way to go – we have to do more. When I have been able to establish this country as a poverty-free country, a hunger-free country, a developed country, perhaps at that time, perhaps then I may say I am proud."

"It was an extremely heinous act. What kind of Muslims are these people? They don't have any religion, their only religion is terrorism."

"My objective is to fulfil the dream of Bangabandhu through building a hunger- and poverty-free Golden Bangladesh being imbued with the spirit of the War of Liberation."

"I think that the friendship between Bangladesh and India is like a flowing river and full with generosity. This is the spirit of the people of the two neighbours. I think if our commitments are honest, we would be able to achieve many things that are beneficial to our people."

"The BNP leader said we kept the people in the dark while signing the memoranda of understanding (MoUs). I have only one question to ask her: Whom did she consult when she signed the defence deal with China? No-one saw what was in it."

"No people in any region would remain neglected . . . development of each and every person is important for the real and balanced development of the country."

"As leaders and activists of Awami League, our responsibility is to fulfill the dream of the father of the nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib so that every person in the country gets food, home, education, health care and prosperous life."

"I want work, I want work with honesty; corruption should be stopped, corruption shouldn't take place in any way."

"At such an age our sons and daughters mostly need a right guideline, their problems need to be realised and more time is needed to be spent with them."

"It is difficult to stem one’s tears when we see the situation. People deserve to live like human beings. Why should they suffer so?"

"For all this three counts, we have decided to inflict her with only one sentence, that is sentence of death."

"Let Sajeeb Wazed Joy be fired and his eyes opened and his hands fall, let her (Sheikh Hasina) see what a bloodbath it causes in a mother's heart when she plucks out her child's eyes."

"Hasina made a last-ditch effort to stay in power with the help of the devil genie (black magic and sorcery)."

"Likes-dislikes:- favorite food: cow intestine; Favorite Song: Zindagi Zindagi; Favorite Personality: Chief Minister Jyoti Bose; The greatest greed: for money; Most Disliked: Praying religious people; Of greatest comfort and joy: human corpses; Most Skill: Lying."

"Hasina had illict sexual relationship with his PS Shakil (Mahbubur Rahman Shakil) and many others. The Awami League itself supplied these informations and their proofs to me. I flashed this secret, that's why Awami League had abducted and dissappeared me forcefully. Not only Sheikh Hasina; I had evidence of illegal sex practices by the President, Benazir and many others. And Ganabhaban was the center of illicit sex. They used to connect each other with giving flower wreath (necklace) to a stone, which in my religion is called Shirk. I consider the Awami League to be an institute of adultery and prostitution. It is a party of prostitution."

"Game: People's leader Sheikh Hasina considers herself a big player. He thinks that he is the most skilled player in the world and there is no other player like him in the world. He loves to play. In other words, playing is his only job. He plays with everyone. Play with the crowd. Play with political leaders. Play with the staff of their team. Play with husband. Also plays with relatives, but less. Played with his sister, but failed, got caught and lost. He was severely beaten while playing with boys and girls. People's leader Sheikh Hasina thinks that there is no such great player like him and no one has the power to catch or understand the game he plays. No one in the world can catch his game. can't understand He is unique in this game. The game that Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina plays is called the game of deception. He plays tricks on everyone."

"The junior leaders of Awami League one day told Joy, son of Bangabandhu's daughter leader Sheikh Hasina, "We are here, we are with you when you become the prime minister." Joy says, "Prime Minister President begs votes from people. I will never become President or Prime Minister by begging for votes. If the you make me king then I am, otherwise I am not." Bangabandhu's daughter, leader Sheikh Hasina immediately said, "Son, we are the king, in the future you will be the king. Your grandfather was the king of this country, your grandfather created this country, owned this country. The servants conspired and killed your grandfather and seized the throne. Just as Alivardi Khan was the Nawab of Bengal, then his grandson Sirajddaula became the Nawab. Your grandfather Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was also the king of Bangladesh. In the future, You will be the king of Bangladesh. The modern name of King or Emperor is President-Prime Minister."

"Bangabandhu's daughter leader Sheikh Hasina's first order was "Kill". Kill and dispose of the body. If any leader, worker or supporter of Awami League says that the administration or other political party is against us, then the first order given by Sheikh Hasina, the daughter of Bangabandhu, was "should be killed", "kill them". I order, kill them. If for some reason the person cannot be killed then give bribe, give money. Bring him in our team with with money. In 1995, while traveling to Tungipara via Mawa Road, Professor Abul Asim, Director of Industrial Credit Company appointed by Sheikh Hasina government, who left the country for UK 30/40 years ago by ferry, said about his own Thana Nawabganj, it is the same as not giving Awami League candidate in Nawabganj (Dhaka district). People of Nawabganj do not like Awami League and do not vote for it. Hearing this, Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina said, she set fire to house to house in the dark of night. He set fire to them and killed them completely."

"On 23rd and 24th May 1981, a secret and urgent meeting of '71 and '75 fighters and ex-army members was held in the seminar room on the third floor of TST, Dhaka University. In this meeting, Colonel Shaukat Ali (currently MP of Awami League, defendant in Agartala conspiracy case) informed the freedom fighter President General Ziaur Rahman Bir Uttam about the plan to kill him and what to do during and after the murder. Colonel Shaukat Ali said that if Ziaur Rahman goes to Chittagong, Zia will be killed under the leadership of Chittagong GOC Major General Manjur Bir Uttam and President Sheikh Hasina is aware of this murder. The president ordered us to help and play a role in this murder. Awami League president Sheikh Hasina has only come to the country for a few days, how can she give such an order? When asked, Colonel Shaukat Ali said that Sheikh Hasina was aware of this while she was outside the country (India)."

"Then Sheikh Hasina brought Mayor Hanif to the office room of Bangabandhu Bhavan and said, Bring this sweet, bring sweet, feed Hanif bhai sweet. While eating sweets, Bangabandhu's daughter said, Bangabandhu was a hero and you are a hero. What if the hero? The whole country, the nation is now looking at the hero. I mean at you. The townspeople are looking at you. I've brought it this far, now you give the finish. Now it's your turn. You are the hero, everything is in your hands. I have nothing else. I did everything I had. You are the mayor, you are the hero, now you score the finishing goal. There won't be a finish without you. The game is still on as you have the finishing in your hands. You made Bangabandhu from Sheikh Mujib to Bangabandhu. If you didn't give shelter to my father that day, if you didn't help and cooperate, then could my father have become the father of the nation from Sheikh Mujib? This is made by you people of Dhaka. Today I am his daughter, if you do not help me, how will I grow up? None of my brothers are alive. you are my brother i am your sister You help me. I will never forget you. I will not go without you. Dhaka Mayor Mohammad Hanif said, Yes leader, give me one month, I will drop Khaleda Zia. Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina said, no, no, one month cannot be given. You throw it away within fifteen days. In this meeting, it was decided to build a permanent stage in front of the press club and continue the agitation day and night until Begum Khaleda Zia falls. Later, dramatist and TV news anchor Ramendu Majumder and dramatist Piyush Banerjee named this stage as Janata Manch. From East to West of Topkhana Road in front of Press Club and North of Secretariat i.e. from Paltan Junction to High Court, the road was completely blocked and a huge stage was built in the middle of the road and music, speeches, recitations etc continued every day. At one point, some officials and employees of the secretariat joined this stage. All this went on under the leadership of the hero and future LGRD Minister Mohammad Hanif in the words of Dhaka Mayor Sheikh Hasina."

"As the Awami League exhibited "all the characteristics of fascism", there is "no room" for Hasina's party to carry out politics in Bangladesh,"

"30 October 2024, Muhammad Yunus, Noble Laurette and Bangladesh interim government Chief Adviser, in an interview with the Financial Times."

"It is heartening that Prime Minister of Bangladesh despite the fact that she is a woman is openly saying that she has zero tolerance for terrorism. I would like to congratulate Sheikh Hasina for her firmness to deal with the menace."

"Noticing her efforts in the haor area, it seems to me that the premier failed to understand the reality of the flood victims."

"Sheikh Hasina and her younger sister Sheikh Rehana have moved to a safe place from Ganabhaban. Sheikh Hasina wanted to record a speech before leaving. He didn't get that chance."

"What happened in the country today, it was supposed to happen. Mass uprisings can never be prevented. The student quota reform movement could have been easily resolved. But because of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's insistence, so many people died. The figure of loss of life that has appeared in the media, in reality this number is much more. How many more bodies are lying, how many mass graves, how many innocent people have lost their lives! She left. Who will answer now? People could not vote for 15 years. Votes have been stolen day after day. Long pent-up anger came to the fore. Sheikh Hasina should have understood how unpopular she and her party are. This is so much loss of life, who will answer? There is a serious lack of good governance in the country. He could not give good governance. Thousands of bullets were fired at students during the quota reform movement. Shots were fired from a helicopter. Earlier we all called HM Ershad a dictator. He was called a dictator because only six people died then. But how many people have lost their lives in the last 15 years. In 2009, 57 army officers died in the then BDR rebellion in Pilkhana. Who will answer now? Who is called the father of the nation, why will his family members be so tragic? We had to see his fate. All this happened because of his pride and arrogance. I said to the Prime Minister, ensure good governance in the country. I have said in various meetings and seminars. What is happening is dictatorship. Because of saying these things we were called agents of different parties. How can you blame the people for the fact that public buildings are being looted and vandalized? Hasina's government has not learned from Sri Lanka. She did not learn from Tunisia. The government has not learned from how Hosne Mubarak flew into a frenzy in Egypt. Such is the consequence if there is no government of the people. Sheikh Hasina left 100 times worse than Ershad. Ershad did not run away. She ran away. She escaped, but destroyed the Awami League party. Her violence, arrogance, pride destroyed the party (Awami League)."

"The grief of losing the near ones, is how much painful, which more than me, who knows better? Modi you tell me, tell me Qader, you tell me. The damage of breaking monitor in metrorail, the deep pain of losing power, I will raise fear by killing more people, but now anymore I can't hold the way... The royal palace have been missed from my hand, how much scream has been piled in by heart, at the pain of losing power, can I laugh anymore? The grief of losing the near ones... The chair of power is elusive today, Who will comfort my pain? In search of peace and hope for power, how much pain accumulates in my heart, The grief of losing the near ones..."

"In 1987, Sheikh Hasina met the young Mrinal Kanti Das, VP of Munshiganj Harganga College Students' Union. And since the introduction, Mrinal Kanti Das started living in Bangabandhu Bhavan at number thirty-two. Sheikh Hasina used to live in that house. Mrinal Kanti Das and Sheikh Hasina used to lock the door from inside the library room of the Bangabandhu Bhavan till late at night and used to chatter and laugh. Mrinal's acceptance towards Sheikh Hasina increased so much that it became the envy of all. Mrinal became Sheikh Hasina's closest person! His power increased so much that in 1990, Awami League Central Committee General Secretary Syeda Sajeda Chowdhury was thrown out of Bangabandhu Bhavan by humiliating him. One day four people including Mrinal are playing cards in Bangabandhu Bhavan. It was three-thirty. At that time, Sheikh Hasina's only uncle, Akram Mamu, came and said, "Don't go to this Mrinal, he is sitting without eating for you!" Mrinal to show off his power in front of his friends replied “Hey, let me stay without eating for a while!” One day Mrinal got angry with Sheikh Hasina and left. Sheikh Hasina herself went and brought Mrinal Kanti Das to Bangabandhu Bhavan to break the anger. After Sheikh Hasina lost the election in 1991, Mrinal left Sheikh Hasina due to various grievances. Sheikh Hasina herself went three times to bring back Mrinal but he did not return. Instead, he started promoting his physical relationship with Sheikh Hasina. Mrinal kept smiling and saying, his relationship with Sheikh Hasina is very deep!"

"Honorable Speaker, who has slandered our leader's () family here... (: ((loudly addressing the excited MPs of the ruling party (Awami League) while seated) sit, sit,... You have done a lot of exaggeration..) is a political prostitute, Hon'ble Speaker. Calcutta civil court's lawer Mr. Chandidas. (Excited uproar among government MPs) He had a daughter named Gouribala Das. Chandidas' Assistant Advocate Mr. Chandidas (Syeda Papia: (from the side) go on reading) used to travel regularly. On this occasion, Aranya Kumar Chakraborty had an illicit relationship with Gauribala. (Papia: read on read on..read on..yeah) (Government party members get more excited) Gouribala pressures Aranya Kumar to marry her when she realizes that she is pregnant. Aranya Kumar does not agree to this and denies the illicit relationship. Meanwhile Chandidas got worried after knowing the matter. Meanwhile Gouribala gave birth to a son on 12/12/1920. He was named Devdas Chakraborty. (Syeda Papia: (shouting support from the side) YOOOOO...(keeps pounding on the table.)) Chandidas keeps pressuring Aranya Kumar Chakraborty to marry Gouribala, (Syeda Papia: (slamming the table with support) Keep reading, keep reading...keep reading, keep catching...don't ever stop...yeah) but Aranya Kumar refused. Meanwhile, Devdas's age increased by 2 years. Chandidas became depressed and felt very ill. when (: (addressing excited parliamentarians of the ruling party) honorable members, calm down.. (addressing Rehana Akhter Ranu) honorable member) Devdas was 3 years old, Chandidas's Muhuri Sheikh Lutfur Rahman (grandfather of Sheikh Hasina) married Gouribala. (The mic turned off) (Shirin Sharmin Chowdhury: Honorable members, I call your attention, honorable members, sit down, everyone, sit down, sit down. Honorable member, I call your attention. Honorable member, you speak on the budget following Rule 270. Give her the mic.) Thank you, Honorable Speaker, for asking me to speak on the budget. But the speech that was given on the last twenty (June), I want to ask you question, was it budget speech?"

"Dog's breed: President of Female Awami League, Female Editor of Central Awami League, General Secretary of Awami League, wife of current LGRD Minister Zillur Rahman, Ivy Rahman mentioned the name of a woman to Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina in 1992 and said that she has many scandals in her name. People's leader Sheikh Hasina immediately said, what, is that the prostitute? IV Rahman became 'stuck' after hearing this from Awami League president Sheikh Hasina saying that "the breed of dogs will be led by these prostitutes". Then Ivy left without saying another word."

"Sheikh Mujib's picture on ten taka: On a Friday morning, Finance Minister PS Dr. Pervez of Kibria, came to Prime Minister's residence Ganobhaban and showed the draft layout design of Sheikh Mujib's picture on ten taka to Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina verbally approves the draft of the layout design of this new ten taka, only then it will be printed and released in the market as a new ten taka note. The layout design of this ten taka note had the image of house of Allah, Mosque on the top and the image of Sheikh Hasina's father Sheikh Mujib on the back. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina saw the draft in the layout design and said to the finance minister's PS Dr. Parvez angrily, What is it! Why is the picture of the father of the nation in behind? Finance Minister's PS Dr. Parvez was a bit unprepared and said that there is a picture of the mosque on the current ten taka notes in the market. Keeping in view the religious sentiments, the picture of the mosque above is fixed, and the picture of the Father of the Nation is given at the back. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina said in an angry voice, "I don't understand those mosques and mosques, they will print new ten taka notes with the picture of the father of the nation and release them in the market." My father is the father of the nation, that must be swallowed by this devil race. Then another day when Dr. Pervez brought the layout design with Sheikh Mujib's picture on the top and the mosque's picture on the back, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina saw it and was happy and gave her verbal approval. It is the new ten taka note with Sheikh Mujib's picture in the market today."

"Remove the mosque: From the beginning of 1986, Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina renewed her push for the student movement. When the agitation did not budge despite many pressures, threats and urgings, he angrily left for Tungipara, his native land and his father's house, in mid-May and stayed in Tungipara for some time. In the meantime, one day when 20/30 Imams of Tungipara village including some Imams of Sheikh house (Sheikh Hasina's own house) came and proposed to cut down the coconut tree saying that the mosque built in the place of another partner of Sheikh house is being damaged by a coconut tree belonging to Sheikh Hasina, Sheikh Hasina directly said that my coconut tree will not be cut. If necessary, remove the mosque. Then all the teachers repeatedly pleaded to cut down the coconut tree located at Sheikh Hasina's place, which is near the walls and site of the mosque, as it is forbidden to move the mosque in the Holy Quran. Then Sheikh Hasina said, close this mosque. I will build a bigger mosque. The Imams say that if there is a little wind, the coconut tree grows on the roof of the mosque. If this continues, the roof and walls of the mosque will soon collapse. Sheikh Hasina said, let it be broken, I don't care. Even if you cry for millions of years, I will not cut the coconut tree."

"Movement movement game: By keeping Bangabandhu's daughter, leader Sheikh Hasina, with dictatorial General Ershad, thinking that Begum Khaleda Zia's single movement would not bring the desired results, Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina replied, "I (Sheikh Hasina) am behind madam (Khaleda Zia). The program that madam (Khaleda Zia) will give, I (Sheikh Hasina) will also give that program." It seems that I (Sheikh Hasina) is also in the movement. When asked about the strong role of the Awami League workers, she said that they should not play with the movement. That is, Madam (Khaleda Zia) should be made to sit at home, so that the people and the Awami League workers are so eager for the movement That despite the clear instructions of Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina regarding the movement, they (Awami League workers) continued to play a strong role in the movement. When the secret order of people's leader Sheikh Hasina not to agitate was reached to the workers of Awami League, then the workers of Awami League wanted to hear this order directly from the mouth of the president Sheikh Hasina. But it was not possible for Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina to give this order directly. As a result, Begum Khaleda Zia continued to lead the movement and Awami League workers including Nur Hossain continued to give their lives."

"Traitorous barbarian forces: On a fall afternoon on May 3, 1984, a few people, including Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina, are sitting and talking at the Bangabandhu Bhavan in Dhanmondi. Story after story, the liberation war of 1971 and the Pakistani army came up. The topic came up about the Bangladesh Army formed during the liberation war of 1971. People's leader Sheikh Hasina said about the Bangladesh army, is it an army? It is a barbaric, cannibalistic, disorderly, greedy, insolent force. This force has no loyalty, no discipline, no humanity, no respect, no patriotism. It is an army of treasonous barbaric hyenas. You talk about Pakistan Army. No army in the whole world can be found as polite, humble, civilized, humble and loyal as Pakistan Army. The sense of humanity of Pakistan Army is unmatched. They are incredibly civilized and humble! On the night of March 25th they (Pakistan Army) came, came and saluted father (Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib), saluted mother, saluted me too. They saluted and said, Sir, we have come only to give you security. Not for anything else. You can go whenever you want, wherever you want. Anyone can visit you. We will only ensure your safety. If you go out, we will accompany you for your safety. If someone comes here, we will search him thoroughly and then let him in. All this will be done for your safety. Really what Pakistan Army has done is completely for our security. When Abba (Sheikh Mujib) was taken away by the Pakistani Army on March 26th afternoon, General Tikka Khan himself came and saluted Abba and mother, stood with Adab and politely said (to Sheikh Mujib), Sir, President Yahya Khan has asked you to take him for discussion. I'm here to take you. Special flight ready to take you (special flight ready) You get ready and you can take anyone including madam (Begum Mujib) if you want. He went alone after discussing with his parents. As long as the Pakistan Army has been on duty, the first salute has been given. Not only that, when my grandmother had a slight fever, the Pakistanis brought her from Tungipara to Dhaka by helicopter and treated her at PG Hospital. Jai (Sheikh Hasina's son) was then pregnant, taking me to CMH (Combined Military Hospital) for checkups every week. A month before winning I was admitted to CMH. After the birth of 'Jai in 71' the Pakistan Army happily distributed sweets and the Pakistanis bore all the expenses of the victory. We could go wherever we wanted. The Pakistanis used to accompany us in two jeeps. Guarded for safety. And the army of Bangladesh! Band of beasts, band of inhumans, these inhuman beasts have killed my parents, brothers - may they be destroyed."

"Whose how much money: Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and her younger sister Sheikh Rehana now have the same account, the same account. After much bickering between the two sisters, a compromise has been reached in exchange for having a joint account. These two sisters currently have three department stores in America (USA). One of them is run by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's daughter Putul and her husband. Another is run by Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's son Joy and the third is run by Prime Minister Sheikh Rehana's younger sister Bobby. Besides, these two sisters have around 3 to 4 thousand crore cash in different countries. Prime Minister's cousin Sheikh Helal MP owns more than a thousand crores of takas. Prime Minister's cousins ​​Luna and Meena own hundreds of crores of takas. Prime Minister's other cousin Rubel and his other brothers have become owners of hundreds of crores of takas. The prime minister's cousin Sheikh Hafizur Rahman Token owns about five hundred crore taka. Prime Minister's father's cousin's son, Prime Minister's APS Bahauddin Nasim and his cousin Prime Minister's Chief Security Najib Ahmed Najib and his brothers together currently own tens of thousands of crores of Takas. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's close and distant relatives have no one who does not currently own hundreds of crores of takas."

"Sharing of two sisters: At present, the one who has the highest power in Bangladesh, whose finger controls the big businesses and high-level jobs of the country, the most powerful among the military-civilian bureaucrats of the government, ministers, prime ministers, presidents and relatives of the prime minister wherever they are, the promotion, demotion and transfer of officials from the highest level of the military to any level whose mood or It is arbitrary, not getting business at the government level, on which all the legal and illegal money of this country is deposited, currently the cashier of the Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina family, who manages the entire country's economy with one hand, except for politics, who does not have the slightest trace of love for the people of this country, who does not think of the people of this country as a race of foxes, dogs, and others. The one who does not say anything, if he wakes up in the middle of the night or if he hears in the middle of the night, twelve crore people of this country have all been killed in the great flood, then he will lose his soul in happiness, who, always, does not think and wish for anything other than the misfortunes and misfortunes of the people of this country, who is none other than Sheikh Rehana, the 2nd daughter of the father of the nation, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the younger sister of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. On the afternoon of 7th July 1996, he came to Ganabhaban. His elder sister to Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. Came directly to the Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and said, this, Sheikh Mujib alone is your father? Sheikh Mujib is not my father? Where is my share? What do I not share? I have to take 5 ministers. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina said, I will not get the minister. Run, let run. I will get as much money as I need. all you have Due to the screams of the two sisters, a special team of 16 hundred (sixteen) members of PGR (Prime Minister's Guard Regiment) consisting of 64 (sixty four) officers of the army, air force and navy assigned to the Prime Minister's 24-hour round-the-clock security, if the members of the PGR (Prime Minister's Guard Regiment) on duty on that day stood confused in their duties, removed them at the behest of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. Overlook is advised as it is a family matter. If you don't minister my five men today, I will leave for America. When I come I will bring equal share. remember Saying this Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Rehana left. At the next stage, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina went to America and brought her younger sister Sheikh Rehana to the country after the final stage of sharing and compromise on the condition that Sheikh Rehana will be Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's cashier. All money should come through the hands of Sheikh Rehana and after Sheikh Hasina, Sheikh Rehana will be Sheikh Mujib's successor."

"Hindus are my strength-trust: On the day Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina announced the nomination of Awami League, on that day she herself announced to contest the election from a total of 4 seats. 1 from Gopalganj, 2 from Bagerhat and 1 from Demra in Dhaka. When Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina withdrew her candidacy from the Demra seat in Dhaka the day after Sheikh Hasina announced that she would contest the election from these 4 seats, some leaders led by Dhaka Mayor Mohammad Hanif requested the public leader Sheikh Hasina and said, "You stood from 3 seats in Gopalganj and Bagerhat (on the other side of the Tungipara Madhumati river) but you did not stand in the election from a single seat in Dhaka." You can stand up from 5 seats. Khaleda Zia stood from 5 seats; You also stand up from 5 seats. You are our leader, you stand for election from at least two seats in Dhaka. In response, Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina said, there are 70% (seventy percent) Hindus in Gopalganj and Bagerhat; How many percent of Hindus in Dhaka? Muslims don't vote for me except Hindus. Muslims are dishonest and ungrateful. Hindus are faithful and grateful. I can trust and believe in Hindus. But Muslims cannot be trusted. Can't be trusted. This is why I am standing in 3 (three) constituencies from Gopalganj and Bagerhat, seventy percent Hindu regions. But did not stand even 1 (one) seat from Dhaka. I stood from Demra after searching and saw that there are not many Hindus in Demra, so I withdrew. Dhaka Mayor Hanif said, this is your wrong idea. How did your other candidates win if Muslims did not vote? Bangabandhu's daughter said, basically, the Hindu bank gets the entire vote, the rest of the relatives come out somehow by singing their own folk songs. Without Hindus, I, my party could not have won even 1 (one) seat. So that the Hindus can vote safely and undisturbed, I have achieved the caretaker government through so many agitations and struggles. Hindus are my ball. Hindus are my hope. Election campaigning is going on fast. The whole country is covered with posters, playing-card festoons, banners and graffiti. Nowhere is there so much empty space. Meetings and processions are going on every night."

"Boat: Durga Devi's carrier: Various political parties nominated candidates to contest the elections on 12 June 1996. Awami League also nominated. As almost sixty-five percent of the total voters in three constituencies in Gopalganj and two constituencies in Bagerhat are Hindus, naturally there is no possibility of any other marker candidate winning the election in these five constituencies except Awami League's boat mark candidate, and has never won and will never win. (1) Moksedpur and Kashiani, (2) Gopalganj and Kashiani (3) Tungipara and Kotalipara (4) Mollar Hat and Fakir Hat (5) Boitaghata and Dakop in these 5 (five) constituencies as long as sixty-five percent Hindu community remains, the Awami League candidate will continue to win exclusively in boat marks. Candidates for these five constituencies do not have to do any work in the area. In any case, if Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina takes Awami League's boat mark ticket, she will win 75% of the votes. These 5 asanas are called alms seats. Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina please begs the seat of this region, she is the people's representative or member of national parliament of this region i.e. MP. When asked why he voted for Awami League, an old Hindu man whose education is almost unknown in this region said, "We don't understand Awami League." I don't even vote for Awami League. We vote by boat. That is, I vote for the boat brand. When asked why he voted for the boat, he said, "I will not vote for the boat?" The boat is the vehicle of the goddess. Mother Durga Devi came down from heaven in this vehicle (boat) to subdue the Asuras (sinners). And if we don't vote for Maa Durga's vehicle boat, then the Goddess vehicle will be dishonored. Maa Durga will curse. Don't you see, during the voting time we all go and vote for the boat brand called Maa Durga, Maa Durga to please Maa Durga Devi. Not a single one is left out. Mother Durga will be displeased if everyone does not go and vote for the boat brand. We will have bad luck. So no matter how much work there is, no matter how much trouble there is, one can only go to the polling station. We will all go and vote for the boat brand."

"Glycerin in handkerchief: The next morning, before going to the Dhaka Medical College Hospital morgue to see the bodies of the seven people killed in Lalbagh, Bangabandhu's daughter Hasina kept saying, put a little glycerine on my (Sheikh Hasina) handkerchief. Put that kind of glycerine on my handkerchief, so that tears come to my eyes when I see the corpse and hold the handkerchief. One said, no need for glycerine, just hold a handkerchief over your eyes and it will look like you are crying. And we will tell the photojournalist (photojournalist) brothers to put the caption you are crying under the picture. When Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina held a handkerchief to her eyes after seeing the bodies of seven dead people in the hospital morgue, the journalists immediately took numerous pictures. Bangabandhu's daughter in the car after taking pictures. got up The car started moving. Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina still had a handkerchief in her eyes. Jalal, the driver of the car, said, "You (Sheikh Hasina) are not a photojournalist now." Everyone in the car laughed. People's leader Sheikh Hasina said, have you seen correctly, there is no photojournalist? No, there isn't. Then I (Sheikh Hasina) took down the handkerchief."

"I will eat more today: Bangabandhu's daughter Sheikh Hasina came to the house of No. 29 Mintu Road and said, Maina (Mrs. Matiur Rahman Rentu) have you brought too much food and drink? I have seen the corpses today, the corpses. I will eat more today. Then he started dancing and singing Zindagi Zindagi. Indeed, she (Sheikh Hasina) plays unusually much. Already she (Sheikh Hasina), after seeing the dead bodies of various movements and struggles, used to eat much more than usual. But that day it was much more than unusual."

"Let me shatter some illusions today. We are entertainers. We are not heroes. The heroes are our freedom fighters. We do not sacrifice anything for the cause of the nation. The freedom fighters did. Don't misunderstand me, cricket is not everything. What we try to do is to bring happiness to our nation."

"I am a cricketer but can I save a life? A doctor can. But no-one claps for the best doctor in the country. Create myths around them. They will save more lives. They are the stars. The labourers are the stars, they build the country. What have we built using cricket? Can we make even a brick using cricket? Does paddy grow on the cricket field? Those who make courtyards using bricks, make things at factories, grow crops in the fields – they are the stars."

"I do not see myself as so cheap (low) that I would judge myself on a trophy. I do not play cricket for a trophy. A trophy is very important at one stage, and I believe Inshallah one day, Bangladesh will win one. It is important because it will boost the young generation coming into cricket. So in that sense you can say Bangladesh need a trophy, but not necessarily right now. And from a personal point of view, if you judge Mashrafe based on a trophy, that is up to you, but I do not see myself as that cheap (low)."

"I say, those who cry ‘patriotism, patriotism’ around cricket, if all of them for one day did not drop banana skin on the streets or did not spit on the streets or obeyed traffic rules, the country would have changed. This huge energy was not wasted after cricket and was used to do one’s work honestly even for a day, that would be showing patriotism. I do not understand the definition of patriotism of these people."

"I never planned ahead for anything in my life -- not for my exams, not when I had to buy clothes for an occasion -- I always do things at the last moment. So when I got the captaincy, I kept doing what I always did. I never thought about success, failure, future or past."

"What do we do? If I say it very bluntly – we take money, we perform. Like a singer or an actor, we do performing art. Nothing more. The Muktijoddhad [1971 Liberation warriors] didn’t face bullets to get money on winning. Who is being compared to whom? If there are any heroes in cricket, they are Rakibul Hasans or martyrs like [Abdul Halim] Jewel... Rakibul Bhai had dared to enter the cricket field with ‘Joy Bangla’ inscribed on his bat [before the 1971 Liberation]. That is big. Even bigger was his going to the front with his father’s gun. Shohid (martyr) Jewel left cricket and joined the crack platoon [a 1971 Liberation war guerrilla formation]. That is bravery. Dealing with fast-bowling has romanticism and duty, not bravery."

"If I do not perform, then I have to move away. If you come to play for the country, then you have to be responsible when representing the flag of the country. 160 million people are watching, 160 million people have judgment. It must be paid."

"If I could play 100 more matches with my 200 wickets, then I could have been a more important bowler. Perhaps everyone would have been very proud of me if I was a bowler of 300 or 350 wickets. I believe I have the ability to play for a long time, but even though I have played for 14 years for the country, I still lost three to four years due to the injury."

"I do not know how long I can continue my game with this team. But I can assure you that when I realize that my skills and willpower are decreasing, then I will drop myself."

"Mashrafe is ‘a piece of diamond’. People all over the world admire him. I know he will do well both in the cricket field and in Narail."

"When you look at Bangladesh, Mashrafe is a fine captain. He leads by example. He is a warrior-like captain and all the guys follow him."

"Mashrafe Mortaza is a fighter."

"Mashrafe Bin Mortaza is highly regarded not only in Bangladesh but all over the cricketing world due to his achievements and commitment towards the game."

"I think he is the best talented cricketer in the history of Bangladesh."

"Mashrafe is of course an incredible captain. He is experienced and as a human being, he is excellent as well. He makes everyone laugh with funny little talks. It has been really nice to play under his captaincy. He listened to everyone attentively which was very nice gesture from him. He is the one who never give up. Everyone in the team respects him."

"I love Mash a lot There is a good relationship between us. Earlier, we played as the opponent. I played together this time, it was a good time."

"Great pleasure to work alongside this top man, Mashrafe Mortaza."

"Mash is a type of guy you want to play for. He gives 100% so you have to give 100%. It is good for any team. Nobody can be lazy with Mash. He is a good cricketer. He is a very accurate bowler, and he can smack the ball against the spinners. He has authority, which is good."

"Mashrafe is a top-class captain. One of the best Asia has produced."

"Mahsrafe is one of the finest human beings he has ever worked with. That is perhaps why most of the young cricketers in the current side see him as their icon, as their mentor, as someone whom they all look up to."

"When I used to hear him speak about me in that way, it gave me a positive mindset. He did it through the tournament. I might play under a better captain than him but I seriously doubt whether if anyone else will take care of me like Mashrafe bhai (brother)."

"He led the team with utmost determination and grit despite losing the likes of Shakib Al Hasan and Tamim Iqbal. He rated Mashrafe Mortaza as the best skipper of Asia Cup 2018"

"Some people may say he’s unfit. But the truth is if he is unfit now, then he has been unfit for the last 10 years – his knees were never okay. But then we saw it emotionally. Now, maybe we are looking at it as a big deal because things are not perfect for him in the last few matches. We are talking about a person on whose back (holding his hand) we have come here. I think it is very unfortunate because considering Mashrafe’s contribution behind the Bangladesh team and bringing the team to this stage, to make comments like these on him is very unfair. I think he deserves much more respect than he is getting."

"Mashrafe is the biggest inspiration of mine. He is a living legend. He is my Hero."

"Fifteen years ago we were in India for an A team tour, just before the Test series against Zimbabwe in which Mashrafe would make his Test debut.We were having dinner on the balcony of the Cricket Club of India in Mumbai when the club's president, Raj Singh Dungarpur, walked up to us and asked who the captain of the team was. I stood up and shook his hand. He said, "Please play well tomorrow. Don't lose too badly."Mashrafe was just a kid back then. He asked me what was being said, and I told him. I think Mr Dungarpur's words did us a huge favour that day. Mashrafe bowled really fast in that game, and took three wickets. I have seen Taskin bowl, but in those days, Mashrafe was really quick. That day, Mashrafe showed us how good he would be for Bangladesh."

"Mashrafe, the best captain of ICC Cricket World Cup 2019. Mashrafe is ahead of Indian captain Virat Kohli and England captain Eoin Morgan."

"Mashrafe bhai's (brother) first series as Bangladesh captain, he handed me an envelope in the airport lounge. "Read it later," he said. I got on the plane and opened the envelope. The letter I read that day is something that I still remember. He had written some very inspiring words about me, and it seemed like he had taken a lot of time to write it, with lots of personal touches. He is an extraordinary human being who has taken our team to new heights. He is like an older brother, a friend. I pray that he leads Bangladesh into more success, and may he play for many years."

"I always found Mashrafe to be a freakishly talented and determined individual. There are many occasions when he was unfit but pulled himself out somehow and managed to perform really well."

"We were playing T20s in Ireland in 2012, and Mashrafe had just returned from an injury. In the first couple of games he struggled a little while bowling, so he was mentally down about it. During a team dinner before the next game, we spoke for ages, and I remember on the bus ride home he opened up about his numerous operations, most of them with no support to and from the hospitals, and then rehab. I was taken aback by his story. He is truly inspirational and you could tell he was a deep thinker, smart and extremely determined."

"I believe in you, he said. I can't explain how much it motivated me. I went on to be selected and I did quite well in that series. This is what Mashrafe bhai does to players. He can motivate them in many ways."

"Clearly, as you saw in the field, Mashrafe is still the best bowler of the side, and once again he proved it today. But the 2019 World Cup is in just two years, and they have to decide if he can last for two more years."

"Elder brother, an idol, Motivator; Mashrafe Mortaza bhai (brother) means a lot to me."

"Mashrafe is a very skilled cricketer. And he always wants to learn something new. He wants to take himself on top by doing well. I see such trends in him."

"Mashrafe is so popular in Bangladesh that if he wants, he can join politics."

"Five years on, it is difficult to avoid the conclusion that we still don’t know what really happened on 9/11. And this dismal, pathetic state of affairs should not continue."

"It is agreed by all that the fires never burned hot enough to melt the steel columns. Whether or not the steel was hot enough to buckle, the official account fails to explain the deposits of molten metal found after the collapses. If not the fires, what could have caused the steel to melt?"

"Professor Jones didn’t write his paper to support a prior ideological-conspiratorial agenda -- he wrote it to point out that to date, conventional scientific explanations of the WTC collapses remain flawed and inadequate. The molten deposits found at Ground Zero, and the failure of the official narrative to account for them, represent an anomaly that should be investigated impartially, not dismissed for reasons of political convenience -- or arbitrary standards of the boundaries of sanity."

"[N]obody has yet been fool enough to accept his argument that the attacks on New York and Washington were part of a pre-arrangement involving the United States government."

"On reflection and on a rereading of his "book," I would change my original article and remove the word "risible." A more apposite term for both the author and his illiterate pages would be "contemptible.""

"Khaleda Zia has no fear, we have not left the streets, I do not accept these slogans. When they are supposed to be on the streets, they were not there. Why should I tell many people, even my leaders, that those who were supposed to be on the streets, were not there. Please do not give these slogans anymore. Learn good slogans. I do not need to bring slum boys to run the party."

"I said I don't want anything, I want to work for the people, for the country, for the people now. I have no desire to be the Prime Minister. I have no desire to be anything else.

"Hey girl, where is your home? Gopali (Gopalgonj)? The name of Gopalganj will change, do you understand? The disrespectful rats. The name of Gopalganj will not exist. Those who are doing this, Allah's wrath will fall on you.' , 'Where are your officers? You have talked a lot so far....Why are you keeping your mouth shut now? . ... 57 officers were killed. Where was Hasina that day? Where was Hasina's force that day? Why didn't she send this force. Because she herself was involved in this murder.There will be no profit in Hasina's mediation. Stay with the people of Bangladesh. Stay with the people. Stay with the people of the country. Only then will it work. The country will survive, the people will survive. Today, it has become everyone's responsibility to save the country. And now you are going door to door and killing people. Do you think there is no accounting for these? The cries of these mothers and sisters... the cries of the wives of BDR officers—will these be in vain? These will never be in vain. Those who are oppressing us today will one day be blinded by tears like these. 'Stop pushing and shoving. Don't push and shove. We didn't come to push and shove. Don't climb on us. Stay away. Where is your place? You are supposed to be on the streets, why have you come home? Why are your daughters arguing like this? These daughters should be quiet. How many days have you been in the service, that you talk so much? Why do you talk so much? Be quiet. Where is the shamelessness? You are the protectors of democracy. And the police force that exists, they are neither there to protect democracy, nor to protect the country. You are the soldiers to protect the country, to protect democracy. We are with you. We will be there, God willing. So, my fellow journalists, fellow lawyers... I express my sympathy to the people who have taken to the streets and have been humiliated in various ways. My sincere thanks. Our program will continue tomorrow as well.' I want to tell the people through the media, 'Democracy has been destroyed today. Now, they should respond to the call I have given to save democracy and the country. The people have responded. Today, the government has closed all the roads and vehicles out of fear so that the people cannot come. But this program will continue. This government is an illegal government. This government is an undemocratic, autocratic government. This government has no right to be in power. If this government has any shame, it will leave immediately.'"

"Allama Shafi has repeatedly said that he does not adhere to Jamaat-e-Islami. Still, Awami League and its supporting intellectuals continue to accuse him of thwarting the trial of Jamaat-e-Islami and war criminals. From this it is understood that the problem of Awami League is not about Razakar or the liberation war, the problem is about Islam. If not, why will Sheikh Hasina make obscene story writer Rajib Haider alias Thaba Baba (claw father, a pseudonym) the first martyr of the Second Liberation War about the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) of Islam? And there are so many groups in the program of Hefazat Islam, why will Shahriar Kabir, the contractor of food in the canteen of the Pakistani army go to strike? They talk about Islam on their faces during vote politics and hijab on their heads and Tababih on their hands, but in reality they are enemies of Islam. They are hypocrites. Avoid and prevent them."

"I have declared three days of state mourning for the death of former Prime Minister Begum Khaleda Zia and a day of general holiday in her prayers tomorrow."

"Today, our entire nation is silent in deep grief and pain. The top leader of the country's democratic politics, former Prime Minister and BNP Chairperson Begum Khaleda Zia is no longer with us. Inna lillahi wa inna ilaihi raji'un. We are deeply saddened and shocked by the demise of Khaleda Zia. The nation has lost a great guardian in her death. In this moment of deep grief, he expressed his sincere condolences to Khaleda Zia's family members, political colleagues and countless workers and supporters on behalf of the entire nation. He said, 'My prayer to the Almighty God is that He may give us all the strength to overcome this deep grief. Khaleda Zia was an absolutely glorious figure in Bangladeshi politics. Her outstanding role in the struggle to establish democracy, multi-party political culture and people's rights will remain immortal in history. Her uncompromising leadership against tyranny and fascism has repeatedly shown the nation the way out of undemocratic situations and has inspired liberation. The nation will forever remember her brilliant contribution to the country and the nation with respect. Khaleda Zia's long political journey, people-oriented leadership, and her steadfast role in upholding the independence and sovereignty of her beloved motherland will be unforgettable. The void of such a great, far-sighted and pure patriotic leader cannot be filled. At this moment of grief, my sincere appeal to you - let us all, from our respective positions, seek forgiveness from the Almighty God for the departed soul of Begum Khaleda Zia. At the same time, let us remain united in this difficult time for the nation. I urge everyone to be vigilant so that no one can attempt instability or sabotage during this time of mourning. It is very important for all of us to play our responsible role at this time. I know that all of you are very emotional at this time. I hope that you will show patience in this time of grief and cooperate with everyone involved in carrying out all the formalities, including her funeral. May Allah Almighty grant us all patience, strength and the ability to remain united."

"After the city of Chittagong was captured by the enemy, when Begum Khaleda Zia hid under a burqa and fled from Chittagong by steamer to Narayanganj, it was Mr. Mozammel Haque who brought her from Narayanganj to Dhaka. That day was May 16. Curfew was imposed in Dhaka city. Curfew was also imposed in Narayanganj from the evening. In the meantime, he painted the Red Cross mark on his car and rushed to Narayanganj terminal. About ten days after bringing Begum Zia, on May 26, the Pakistani soldiers called all the officers with the name Haque in the Industrial Development Organization and asked if anyone was related to Colonel Zia. Mr. Mozammel Haque realized that danger was approaching. He hid his relationship with Colonel Zia there and returned home on the pretext of illness and immediately made arrangements to remove Begum Zia from her house. But not finding a suitable place, he finally left her at the house of one of his uncles in Dhanmondi for a few days on 28th May and from there on 3rd June he was again shifted to the house of Mr. Mujibur Rahman, Assistant Director of Geological Survey and a few days later to the house of Mr. SK Abdullah, Deputy Director of Geological Survey. In the meantime, on 13th June, the Pakistani army men came and raided the house of Mr. Mozammel Haque. A certain Colonel Khan was leading this raiding party. Colonel Khan questioned Begum Zia and said that they had seen Begum Zia in this house. Not getting any satisfactory answer from Mr. Haque, his ten-year-old son Don was also questioned. Don clearly told Colonel Khan that he had not seen his aunt in the last three years. When all efforts failed, Khan's soldiers searched his house. But not finding Begum Zia there, he returned in despair. Before leaving, he was told that if he did not tell the truth, he would be taken to the cantonment. After that, Mr. Haque realized that he was being followed all the time. Wherever he went, Feu followed him. In this situation, he took leave from the office on the pretext of his mother's illness and made arrangements to leave Dhaka with his family. As arranged, on July 1, they left the car in the garage and went out through the back door and boarded two auto-rickshaws. The intention was to go to Begum Zia's maternal uncle's house in Dhanmondi and board for the time being. But as soon as they reached the Science Laboratory, one of their auto-rickshaws broke down. In this situation, they went to a friend's house on Green Road nearby and boarded. But a big surprise awaited them here. As soon as Mr. Haque reached here, the wife of this distinguished friend of his informed him that they had received a letter written by Colonel Zia. The letter was written to Mr. Haque and they had been looking for him for a few days to send it to him. Not understanding how Colonel Zia's letter addressed to him came to this house, he was completely surprised and wanted to see the letter. His friend's son took out the letter. To check whether it was really written by Colonel Zia, he gave it to his friend's son and sent it to Mr. Mujibur Rahman of the Geological Survey. Meanwhile, as evening approached, Mr. Haque sought shelter at his friend's house for the night. Assuring them of a safer place, they were sent to a small house in Sutrapur at night. His friend's son brought them to this house in a car. Here they took shelter in a small room. But the next day, they found that the Pakistani army had surrounded the house. Dozens of armed soldiers were standing in front of the house. The head of this group was Captain Sajjad and Captain Arif. They went inside and started questioning them about Colonel Zia and Begum Zia. Mr. Haque and his wife denied their relationship with Zia. But when Captain Sajjad showed them a group photo of Begum Zia with Mr. and Begum Haque, they admitted to their relationship with Zia. However, they said that they did not know where the Colonel and Begum Zia were. At this stage, around 5 pm, Mr. Haque and his wife were taken to Malibagh intersection in a military vehicle and kept in front of Mouchak Market until evening. Here they were told that Begum Zia had been arrested. Then they were taken around the second capital area and brought back to their house in Sutrapur and released. From here, they came to Mr. Haque's friend's house on Green Road at night and from there returned to his own house in Khilgaon. It is noteworthy that on this day, Begum Zia and Mr. Abdullah, as well as Mr. Mujibur Rahman, were arrested by the Pak army from Mr. SK Abdullah's house in Siddheshwari."

"Dacca, Major Zia Ur Rahman, Pak Army. We all happy with your job. We must say, good job. You will get new job soon.Don't worry about your family. Your wife and kids are fine. You have to be more careful about Major Jalil. Col. Baig, Pak Army, May 29. 1971"

"The agency has killed Osman Hadi for two reasons, 1. Tarique Rahman (TR 10) % for the arrival of Saheb. India has no other option than Tarique. 2. #BNP has announced not to prosecute army officers involved in the disappearance and murder. The agency wants to bring a corrupt and terrorist to power to save criminal army officers. It is worth noting that BNP has announced not to do mega projects only to not do the Teesta project. It is worth noting that Tarique's arrival was announced on the day of the shooting on Hadi. So that he gets security like the Prime Minister before he comes to the country. Besides, Khaleda Zia died long ago and is currently in cold storage. Otherwise, why are there no pictures/videos of Khaleda Zia's illness."
