BNP Acting Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi said that in the November 7 revolution, this country found a commitment to strengthen its true independence and sovereignty. He said that with the release of BNP founder martyr President Ziaur Rahman, the entire nation has found a new direction
He made this statement while talking to reporters after paying homage at the tomb of martyred President Ziaur Rahman on Saturday.
Ruhul Kabir Rizvi said, on January 25, 1975, they took the initiative to permanently discipline the entire nation within two-three minutes. They took away all these civil rights from the people through laws and verbal abuse. Then, they created a situation of tragic bloodshed through their own counter-revolution.
He said, the country was pushed into an anarchic situation. The country was covered in inhumanity. At that moment, the people's desire was to get a taste of real freedom, a taste of democracy. Ziaur Rahman brought it.
He further said, on November 23, when the great independence proclaimer of this country, martyred President Ziaur Rahman and his family were imprisoned in the cantonment house, the hopes and aspirations of an independent nation for independent development were plunged into despair. Then people fell into extreme anarchy. There was fear everywhere. Ziaur Rahman was released on November 7. Through his release, the entire nation got a new direction.
Rizvi said that under the leadership of Shahid Zia, Bangladesh established itself as a state of prestige in the international court through development and production. He said that under his leadership, this nation found multi-party democracy.
