The Prime Minister said, “The present government will not indulge in any form of extremism or radicalism under any circumstances. Although we, the ruling party and the opposition party, may differ on some matters in this Parliament, we have agreed together on many issues. I believe that the present government will not tolerate fundamentalism and extremism – and we will have the full cooperation of the opposition party in this regard.”
The Prime Minister further said, “Each one of us firmly believes in a Bangladesh where there will be no room for extremism or fundamentalism. No one will snatch away their democratic rights from the people in the name of the spirit of the liberation struggle.”
House leader Tariq Rehman believes that there has been a decline in religious, social, cultural and family values in the country. As a result, he said that it is extremely important to restore family values and expressed hope that every family will fulfill its responsibility in this regard.
The Prime Minister said that national unity between the opposition and the ruling party exists on the basis that fascism and autocracy should never be allowed to raise their heads again in Bangladesh, and this beloved motherland should never be turned into a puppet state. This unity will be maintained at all costs.
