Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina today called upon the countrymen and the pro-liberation forces to remain alert so that the defeated forces in the Liberation War of 1971 cannot get the scope to distort the history.
“A group of people were trying to erase the name of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and the 7th March speech. History cannot be erased and they could not be able to do this,” Hasina said.
Hasina said the people, who were trying to erase the speech of the 7th March, killed Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman along with his family members on August 15, 1975.
She was addressing a rally at Suhrawardy Udyan in Dhaka organised to celebrate the recognition of the historic 7th March speech of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman as a world documentary heritage.
Sheikh Hasina, also president of Bangladesh Awami League, reached the venue around 2:40pm.
