Arsonists Won't Be Allowed to Come to Power Again: PM

Prime Minister and Awami League President Sheikh Hasina called upon the people to remain alert so that the corrupt, anti-liberation forces and arson terrorists could not come to the power.

"The arson terrorists would not be allowed to come to power again," she said.

Joining virtually a joint meeting of the AL and its associate bodies held at the party's Bangabandhu Avenue central office here, from her official Ganabhaban residence, she asked the party leaders and activists to remain alert so that no anarchy can take place in the country.

"Our leaders and activists should remain prepared at each of the areas so that they (BNP-Jamaat) cannot resort to torture anymore," she said.

Sounding a note of warning, she said all should remember that the Awami League did not come from anyone's pocket and its existence was deep-rooted as it was established by the Father of the Nation.

"BNP came from the pocket of uniformed military dictator Ziaur Rahman," she said.
