Bangladesh is on democratic path: Pranab Mukherjee

Bangladesh is on democratic path, said former Indian President Pranab Mukherjee. In a special convocation in Chittagong University on Tuesday (January 16th), he made the remark.

Pranab Mukherjee said, "Today, standing on this ground, I realize that through the rule of democracy, the country progressed to the path of development. A World Bank report showed that in 2008, the economic situation of India, China, Russia and other countries including recession; Bangladesh is recognized as one of the leading countries.

He said, "Five years after the establishment of Chittagong University, there is a crisis. Around 7 billion people of Bengal, students, youths, political activists have made movement to establish Bengali language. As a result, Bangla has been recognized international language and United Nations.

Former Indian President said, "It has been possible for the five decades that East Pakistan, sacrifice of many people of today's country, by movement, education and self-sacrifice. There is no mention in many countries on earth. For the language, the sacrifice of life for culture. History of martyrdom is not available in many countries. But Bangladesh did it. The founding of an independent nation, its origin has been created by the people of Bangladesh, based on the language - culture, its history, heritage, its practice of life, its overall, humanistic perspective.

Pranab Mukherjee said, "The unanimous leader of Bangladesh is the greatest Bangalee of all time, Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman announced on this day - the struggle for independence is the struggle of independence. Even before the arrest, as long as an aggressor is in this country, the war will continue. In this freedom struggle, the people of Bangladesh got their freedom of expression, tortured, assaulted and killed.

He said, "After the liberation, another major hit came soon. In India, we lost Mahatma Gandhi within a few months of independence. Similarly, on the 15th of August 1975, at the end of three to three years of independent Bangladesh, the Father of the Nation, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was killed in a brutal attack by a group of killers. A new country has barely gained independence, many issues, problem of country building, problems for advancement, problems of poverty reduction, removal of unemployment problem. In these problems, the political leadership was completely eradicated during the birth of a nation. There is no such instance anywhere in the history of the world. '

Regarding the assassination of the politicians of the subcontinent, he said, "I do not know whether any social, political background has been done to kill the politicians of the subcontinent. To the historians and scholars, I will be killed in the Brahma country (Myanmar) Anshan Suuya father General Anshan Bras Faraya. Sri Lankan Prime Minister was killed in 1960. Mahatma Gandhi was killed in 1948. Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was killed on 15 August 1975. Those who conducted the liberation war on November 3 were killed in jail. Ziaul Huq was killed in Pakistan. Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto was hanged. What is the reason for this huge political murder? People in this region need to know.

Pranab Mukherjee said, "There has been a long period of military rule in Brahman. Now there is democracy. But sometimes the military rule comes. 'He asks,' In any social economic situation, the soldiers come out of the barracks? '

Mukherjee said, "We have to know the reasons behind this huge political killings, there is no political, social and economic background behind it."

In this case, he urged the socialists and historians of the university to come forward in the study.
