"As we mark the 75th anniversary of the @UN Charter, we must reimagine the way nations cooperate. We need an effective multilateralism with scale, ambition and teeth."

"There is more than enough food in the world to feed our population of 7.8 billion. But, today, more than 820 million people are hungry & #COVID19 is making things worse. To eradicate hunger, we must ensure inclusive access to healthy and nutritious food."

"Handwashing is one of the most effective ways to limit the spread of #COVID19 but 40% of the global population lacks basic handwashing facilities at home. We need safe water supply & sanitation services to prevent & contain the current & future pandemics..."

"We have a choice, collective action or collective suicide."

"We all need to stand in solidarity with those least able to protect themselves from #COVID19.This is not only the right thing to do -- it is the only way we will overcome this crisis."

"The @UN appeal for a global ceasefire appeal continues to resonate across the world. I'm deeply grateful to all @UN Messengers of Peace, #GlobalGoals Advocates, and the more than one million people who have made their voice heard in support of peace."

"We must end all violence – from the warzone to the home. 124 Member states and observers so far have answered my call for peace at home during the #COVID19 crisis. Now more than ever, there must be zero tolerance for violence against women and girls."

"I have called for an immediate global ceasefire in all corners of the world..."

"We cannot allow the #COVID19 crisis to also become a hunger crisis. We must unite to defeat it and support the poorest and the most vulnerable."

"As the world fights #COVID19, we are also fighting an epidemic of harmful falsehoods & lies. I'm announcing a new @UN Communications Response initiative to spread facts & science, countering the scourge of misinformation - a poison putting more lives at risk."

"The transatlantic slave trade is one of the biggest crimes in the history of humankind. And we continue to live in its shadow. We can only move forward by confronting the racist legacy of slavery together."

"My position on racism is crystal clear: this scourge violates the UN Charter and debases our core values. Every day, in our work across the world, we strive to do our part to promote inclusion, justice, dignity and combat racism in all its manifestations."

"With our bottomless appetite for unchecked and unequal economic growth, humanity has become a weapon of mass extinction. We are treating nature like a toilet. And ultimately, we are committing suicide by proxy"

"Historical evolution mocks all the prophylactic measures that have been adopted for the prevention of oligarchy. If laws are passed to control the dominion of the leaders, it is the laws which gradually weaken, and not the leaders."

"Michels went on to draw the unwarranted conclusion that democracy is impossible in a political system because it was, he believed from his study of one party, impossible in a particular element of the system. Had he been writing today it is inconceivable that he would have moved so casually from his observation of oligarchy in a political party to the conclusion that oligarchy is inescapable in a political system in which the political parties are highly competitive. Michels's elementary mistake reminds us that for the most part the theorists of minority domination discussed here had little or no experience with systems of competitive parties in countries with a broad suffrage or, certainly, with systematic analysis of competitive party systems."

"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."

"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."

"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?"

"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."

"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?"

"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..."

"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."

"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!"

"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."

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

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

"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)."

"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."

"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."

"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."

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

"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."

"Responding to a question from reporters on quota reform"

"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."

"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)."

"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."

"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."

"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."

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

"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."

"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."

"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."

"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."

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