'People across the country are crying for Khaleda Zia, no one is speaking for Hasina'

Rashed Khan, the central general secretary of the People's Rights Council, said that although people across the country are crying for Khaleda Zia's illness today, no one is speaking for Hasina.He said this while talking to reporters after a public meeting at Joradah Bazar in Harinakundu Upazila of Jhenaidah on Saturday (November 29).Rashed said, Begum Khaleda Zia is sick today. Khaleda Zia has been repeatedly taken to jail. She has been slowly pushed to death by the Indian-backed Hasina government. Today, people across the country are crying for her illness. But fascist Hasina has fled. Far be it from praying for her, a person who can speak cannot be found in a hurricane.He also said, Begum Khaleda Zia is a symbol of our sovereignty. She is the face of the anti-hegemonic movement. She has played a leading role in establishing democracy and the right to vote. She did not leave the country despite Sheikh Hasina, Awami League and Indian conspiracies. Today Hasina is a fugitive. There is no one in the country to take Hasina's name.Regarding the Chittagong Port terminal lease, he said, "This government's job was to reform, prosecute genocide and hold fair elections. But to please foreigners, they are handing over the responsibility of controlling and managing the port to them. The people will not accept this." At this time, he also warned that the port cannot be handed over to foreigners on the pretext of extortion.On the other hand, criticizing the government's advisors, he said, "This government's advisors are doing commission trading and corruption. We are getting news of advisors' commission trading in various ways. Whichever government comes in the future, the corruption of these advisors will be investigated."Earlier, in the evening, Rashed Khan held a public meeting at Joradah Bazar in Harinakundu Upazila at the initiative of the District Public Rights Council. At that time, the party's district president, lecturer Sakhawat Hossain, general secretary Zahid Iqbal Rajan, organizing secretary of the Youth Rights Council Md. Mission Ali, District President of the Professional Rights Council Russell Ahmed were present.
