remember that they belong to the mother&#8217;s race.\u00a0So we are aware enough that there is no opportunity to neglect girls.\u00a0Today, women are not backward even at our village level.\u00a0We

can.\u00a0Yes I believe it myself everyone is worthy, no one is unworthy.\u00a0I would still say if anyone is still lagging behind it is the responsibility of this political leadership to pull them up.\u00a0And only these sisters of ours can do it, we will not leave anyone behind.\u00a0I will move forward with everyone.<\/span><br \/>\n<span>Referring to her return to the country in 1981 after the death of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and her family in 1975, Sheikh Hasina said, &#8220;I found rows of graves on my return.&#8221;\u00a0Touching the soil of that grave, I vowed that freedom cannot fail.\u00a0I will not let this freedom fail.\u00a0My journey was not so easy.\u00a0Various conspiracies and conspiracies were going on, and there are still conspiracies and conspiracies.\u00a0Awami League president said, I said in this huge public meeting on Manik Mia Avenue that the people of Bangladesh are my family.\u00a0The people of this Bangladesh are my people.\u00a0The way my father sacrificed his life to change their fate.\u00a0As my mother, my brothers gave their lives, I will pour my blood to change the fate of these people.<\/span><br \/>\n<span>Referring to the obstacles in his way, he said, his only strength is the support of people and the inspiration of people.\u00a0That is why it is for people to do their work.\u00a0They even thought that Russell was killed so that no one of Bangabandhu&#8217;s blood could come to power.\u00a0I don&#8217;t know if God kept me alive, I have faced death many times, sometimes bullets, sometimes bombs, sometimes grenade attacks, I had to face all these things.\u00a0My party leaders and workers have repeatedly protected me by forming human shields.\u00a0Many have given their lives.\u00a0I always remember them.<\/span><br \/>\n<span>General Secretary of Awami League and Minister of Road Transport and Bridges Obaidul Quader was present on the stage.\u00a0Dr. publicity and publication secretary of the party.\u00a0Abdus Sobhan conducted the rose ceremony.The Prime Minister said, no one could have imagined that today&#8217;s Bangladesh, Awami League will come to power again and again after going through so many ups and downs.\u00a0Awami League is in power after repeatedly winning the elections from 96 to 2001 and then 2008.\u00a0When he formed the government in 2009, there was a battered economy, a battered society and chaos.\u00a0Overcoming them is the path of our development.<br \/>\nAwami League president said, we have proved that any desired goal can be achieved if we proceed with specific ideal goals.\u00a0Today&#8217;s Bangladesh is a changing Bangladesh.\u00a0Today&#8217;s Bangladesh has got the status of a developing country.\u00a0By changing the negative perception that the world had about Bangladesh at one time, today I can claim that Bangladesh has occupied a prestigious seat in the world today.<br \/>\nHighlighting his government&#8217;s initiative to empower women, the prime minister said to the aspirants that our women have many responsibilities.\u00a0I know I can nominate only 48 people out of so many people.\u00a0But the desire to lead those who are where they are, should not be lost even if they do not get the nomination.<br \/>\nHe said, it must be retained.\u00a0By holding on to it, one must keep one&#8217;s own place.\u00a0One thing to remember is that no one makes a place but a place has to be taken.\u00a0The place has to be taken and the organization has to be created in such a way, to stand by the people, to work for the people, to gain the trust and confidence of the people.\u00a0We have to go to the grassroots and earn their trust and confidence.\u00a0So that in future we can field more women candidates in direct elections.<br \/>\nThe head of government said that the most noticeable thing in this election is that women voted the most.\u00a0They voted in long queues.\u00a0Once upon a time this was not the case.\u00a0Today, people are voting for Awami League, the reason for this change is to win people&#8217;s hearts by working.\u00a0Therefore, if you want to lead, you should not sit and wait for who will make what.\u00a0The organization should be built in its own way by doing its own work in its own capacity.<br \/>\nThe Prime Minister said that the father of the nation gave us the status of a less developed country by building a war-torn country, from where we got the status of a developing country.\u00a0The operation of which will start from the year 2026.\u00a0We have a lot of work to do in that regard.\u00a0We have announced that we will build a smart Bangladesh within 41 years.\u00a0Smart Bangladesh means our skilled manpower will be developed, it is equal for both men and women, we will make our youth society that way through training, we will have a smart government, the economy will be smart, we will build our society as smart.\u00a0That is, Bangladesh or the people of Bangladesh will not be left behind in any case.\u00a0In all cases there will be pioneers.<br \/>\nThe Prime Minister mentioned the steps taken by his government to successfully deal with Covid-19 and keep the country&#8217;s economy moving by providing free vaccines and testing and giving cash and incentives to people of all professions.\u00a0So that many developed countries have also suffered.\u00a0Thousands, millions of people died in those countries.\u00a0But Bangladesh has managed to deal with it successfully despite being a small landlocked country with a large population, he said.<br \/>\nAt this time, he mentioned the various steps taken by his government to create women entrepreneurs, including the Awami League&#8217;s tree planting program launched in 1985 and the establishment of rural savings banks, and said that many families have now stood on their own feet with these opportunities.\u00a0Our maternal mortality rate has decreased, child mortality rate has decreased, we have ensured food security, we have created the awareness of people about nutrition today.\u00a0Now there is no famine or famine in Bangladesh but people get food security.<br \/>\nHe reiterated his call to increase overall food production by bringing every inch of land under cultivation in the country.<br \/>\nHe said, we are working in every field for the development of a society.\u00a0We have provided free primary education to higher education.\u00a0Providing free books and greatly expanded the education system to create an educated nation.\u00a0Because if you want to build a smart Bangladesh, you need an educated nation.<br \/>\nHe congratulated those who came to the Ganabhaban and said, &#8220;Today, the garden of my Ganabhaban is decorated with flowers.&#8221;
