Resisting militancy, communalism is Awami League's pledge in 21st council: Quader

Bangladesh Awami League General Secretary and Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader today said the pledge of Awami League in the 21st national council will be eliminating militancy and resisting the communal forces.

"The challenge of the present government is stamping out the poisonous root of the communal forces and militancy. The AL's committee this time will be more dynamic through the combination of young and older leaders to overcome the challenge," he said.

The Awami League general secretary said this while briefing journalists after visiting the stage set up for the party's 21st national council slated for December 20-21 at the historic Suhrawardy Udyan in the city.

Urging the party leaders and activists to strengthen the hands of Prime Minister and Awami League President Sheikh Hasina for implementing the party's election manifesto, Quader said, "The government cannot be successful if the party is not strengthened".

The new committee will work to make the Prime Minister's visions a success aiming at realizing the dream of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, he said.

Terming the upcoming council as important one, the Awami League general secretary said the council will be held in a festive mood while some amendments will be brought in the party constitution.

Awami League Relief and Social Welfare Secretary Sujit Roy Nandi, central working committee member Mirza Azam, Dhaka City South Awami League President Abu Ahmed Mannafi and Dhaka City North Awami League President Sheikh Bazlur Rahman and General Secretary SM Mannan Kachi were present, among others, during the briefing.
