boat.\u00a0If they want destruction, they are BNP-Jamaat.\u00a0So, keeping that in mind, I urge you to vote for the boat brand.\u00a0Let me serve you.<\/span><br \/>\n<span>He said, I have only one thing.\u00a0But, I will work for the welfare of the people of the country.\u00a0We want you to vote on the boat brand.\u00a0So that I can serve you again.<\/span><br \/>\n<span>\u00a0Sheikh Hasina

appeal to you in the upcoming elections.\u00a0I know they are in doubt whether BNP will come to the polls or not.&#8217;\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span>Calling this normal, he said, who is the leader of the election they will make?\u00a0Who will be their prime minister that they will choose?\u00a0That corrupt fugitive!\u00a0Orphan money embezzlement!\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span>&#8220;That&#8217;s why they are trying to disrupt the election.\u00a0They know that boat brands will get votes and Awami League will come to power only when there is an election.\u00a0The development of the country will be accelerated.\u00a0So, they want to spoil the election.\u00a0Wants to take away people&#8217;s right to vote.\u00a0Therefore, I urge the countrymen to be careful not to do this.\u00a0And I am warning you especially the people of Dhaka,\u201d he added.<\/span><br \/>\n<span>At that time, when he asked for the pledge of the people gathered to vote on the boat, they all raised their hands and expressed their pledge.<\/span><br \/>\n<span>He said that it is not only necessary to vote by yourself, but also to spread the word to family, friends and all in the country and abroad.\u00a0It should be propagated that there is only Awami League for the development of this country.\u00a0They are the only ones who can develop this country and give democracy.<\/span><br \/>\n<span>General Secretary of Awami League and Minister of Road Transport and Bridges Obaidul Quader spoke in the rally.\u00a0<\/span><br \/>\n<span>Also spoke, Presidium member and Minister of Agriculture

chairmanship of Awami League Dhaka Metropolitan North President Sheikh Bajlur Rahman and North General Secretary SM Mannan Kochi.<\/span><br \/>\n<span>On the occasion of the inauguration of the 3rd terminal of Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport, on the day of the inauguration of the terminal, this gathering was postponed on October 7 due to inclement weather.\u00a0Ignoring the heat of the scorching sun, the enthusiastic leaders and workers and the general public joined the rally in groups wearing colorful clothes from early morning and chanting slogans.The Prime Minister said that today&#8217;s Dhaka has changed, today Bangladesh has changed, the government has taken steps to remove traffic congestion and the metro rail has already been launched.\u00a0This metrorail will then go step by step through Motijheel to Kamalapur railway station.\u00a0Work on the project to have metro rail along with subway has also started.\u00a0Nuclear power plants are built for power security.\u00a0Along with that, we have taken steps to construct circular water wedges in Dhaka.\u00a0The first elevated expressway has already been commissioned.\u00a0Even in the future, the government has plans to build an elevated expressway around Dhaka.\u00a0But for this there will be no need to acquire any land.<br \/>\nReferring to the construction of the Bangabandhu multi-purpose bridge with rail link on the Yamuna river by forming the government in 1996, he said, as a result, direct road communication was established with North Bengal and his government capitalized on the trust and confidence of the people by coming to power for the second time and staying in power for three consecutive terms. Today Padma has built the bridge with its own funding.\u00a0Now both cars and railways are going over the Padma River.<br \/>\nHe said that the government has built this bridge with its own funds by taking the World Bank&#8217;s slander that there was corruption at the beginning of the construction of the Padma Bridge as a challenge and all the allegations of the World Bank have been proved to be false and false.\u00a0Because Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib&#8217;s daughter came to power not for corruption but to serve the people.\u00a0And in its own sense, the image of Bangladesh in the international arena has been brightened by the construction of the Padma Bridge.<br \/>\nThe head of the government said that tunnels are being built under the Karnaphuli river, sea ports have been built.\u00a0The &#8216;Deep Sea&#8217; port at Maheshkhali will now be re-launched after formation of an authority.<br \/>\nReferring to the construction of flyovers in the capital, he said, we have constructed Mayor Hanif flyover, Mogbazar-Mouchak flyover, Banani overpass, Kalshi flyover and more new flyovers are being constructed.\u00a0Mas Rapid Transit from Airport to Gazipur is also nearing completion.\u00a0Purbachal Expressway has been constructed.<br \/>\nIf it comes to power in the future, the Awami League government will overpass the railway crossings in all the places in the Dhaka North area, so that the railway does not have to be blocked.\u00a0Because, it is our responsibility to see all facilities, he said.<br \/>\nHe said, all these have been possible for one reason, because Awami League was given the opportunity to form the government by voting for our candidate in boat marks in the elections of 2008, 2014 and 2018.\u00a0That is why I would say boat is a brand that has given freedom, development, electricity to every house, solved the water problem, made communication easy, created employment, is making 100 economic zones all over the country so that employment can be created in the country.<br \/>\nThe Prime Minister said that there is only one boat brand, everything will happen only if this brand is in power.\u00a0And those robbers are corrupt, murderers, robbers, thieves &#8211; they will destroy the country if they come to power.\u00a0Please do not let them destroy this country.<br \/>\nSheikh Hasina said, during Khaleda Zia&#8217;s tenure, Dhaka-Mymensingh highway, Siddhirganj power plant, NAICO, GATCO &#8211; they committed corruption in everything.\u00a0Banks stopped financing power projects, roads, but they didn&#8217;t have the backbone to challenge them.\u00a0Because they were corrupt.\u00a0Embezzled people&#8217;s money.\u00a0And Awami League serves the people, works for their welfare.<br \/>\nMentioning that many people will get employment if the 3rd terminal of Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport is fully operational, he said, as a result, international communication will improve.\u00a0A state-of-the-art international airport is being constructed at Cox&#8217;s Bazar.\u00a0Chittagong and Sylhet international airports were also built by the Awami League government.<br \/>\nHe pointed to BNP and said that they stage dharnas here and there abroad.\u00a0No work will be done with those sit-ins.\u00a0People power is great power.\u00a0I believe in the power of the people.\u00a0I have confidence in them.Recalling the tragic episode of 1975, he said, I lost my father, mother and brothers that day.\u00a0The people of Bangladesh lost everything and came back to the country.\u00a0Today the people of Bangladesh are my family.\u00a0my own\u00a0So I have taken it as my duty to work for them.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Staff correspondent : Prime Minister and Awami League President Sheikh Hasina has called on the countrymen to be careful so that BNP does not thwart the upcoming national elections through any nefarious action.
