We don't want to see another fascist in power by removing one fascist. We don't want another terrorist in power. The previous government has created inequality in all areas for 17 years in power. It has laundered lakhs and crores of taka including disappearances, murders, attacks, cases, torture and oppression, said the senior Nayeb-e-Amir of Islami Andolan Bangladesh, Sheikh Charmonai Mufti Syed Faizul Karim.
He said this at a public meeting of Islami Andolan Bangladesh held at Bhola Government School Ground on Friday (November 22) afternoon.
He said, we thought that inequality would be eliminated after August 5, but it didn't happen. Extortion, looting, grabbing, tender rigging, everything is happening, only individuals have changed. But people did not give blood for this. So we will not follow their path and words.
He also said, we don't want inequality, inequality must be eliminated. The fruit of the student-public movement is today's new Bangladesh. The people of the country have taken up arms, fought, hundreds of people have shed blood, been killed but inequality has not been eliminated. We thought that if inequality can be eliminated, peace will come to the country. We have changed A, B, C, but theft through thieves cannot be changed. Similarly, corruption cannot be stopped by leaving corrupt people behind. Rintu ate it first, now Sentu is eating it. The leader has changed, the party has changed. But the country and its policies have not changed. One cannot expect sweet fruits by planting tamarind trees.
Faizul Karim said, there are a lot of gas resources in Bhola. Bhola gas is being purchased at Taka 16 and but sold at Taka 47, but the people of Bhola are not getting gas. This inequality must be eliminated. The people of Bhola demand that it is possible to take it elsewhere only by connecting gas to their homes first. If Bhola gas is to be taken outside, industrial plants including the Bhola-Barishal bridge can be built and then the gas can be taken to different parts of the country.
At that time, he announced a program to surround the Bhola Intraco LPG station on December 6 if gas is not provided to homes immediately.
Under the chairmanship of Maulana Ataur Rahman Momtaji, President of the Bhola District North Branch of Islami Andolan Bangladesh, Senior Joint Secretary General Maulana Gazi Ataur Rahman delivered the keynote address, while Maulana Muha. Sirajul Islam, Vice Principal, Barishal Divisional Organizing Secretary of Islami Andolan Bangladesh, Maulana Obaidur Rahman Bin Mustafa, Barishal Divisional Organizing Secretary of Islami Andolan Bangladesh, etc., delivered the special guest address.
The program was moderated by Maulana Tariqul Islam Tarek, Secretary of the Bhola District North Branch of Islami Andolan Bangladesh.
