Comilla polls show govt neutrality

Says PM

BSS, Dhaka
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina yesterday said the Comilla City Corporation election was a complete manifestation of the government's neutrality.
Saying that all elections under the present political government were fully free and fair, she said, "We believe in the power of people and the party which has public support, will come to power, the government will never interfere in any electoralprocess."
Hasina was speaking to the central leaders of Bangladesh Chhatra League as they came to Gono Bhaban to exchange greetings with heron the occasion of the founding anniversary of the organisation.
Reiterating her previous stand on holding the next general elections under a political government, the prime minister said, "Why did the BNP leaders forget the sufferings caused to them during the past caretaker government?"
Some people who have no public support but aspire to enjoy power, are misguiding the Leader of the Opposition, Hasina observed and said "no caretaker government but the people only can bring BNP to power".
Turning to the current political situation, the prime minister said the present government is making efforts to build a poverty- and hunger-free nation.
Urging the BCL leaders to remain above luxury, she said luxury does not suit when millions of people live in poverty.
Hasina, who earlier left the post of organisational head of the BCL, asked the leaders and workers to devote to learning, mould themselves with the ideals of Bangabandhu and work constructively to regain public confidence in the studentpolitics.
"Live simple, think high, and build yourselves as the self-dignified and selfrestrained citizens."
She said a student leader lacking education and knowledge can give nothing to the nation. "It has been proved after 1975, what a disastrous situation arises when leadership of the nation goes to the uneducated leaders."
Recalling the glorious history ofthe organisation, Hasina said, BCL is such an organisation whose leaders and workers sacrificed most for the country's liberation as well as resto-rationofdemocracy.
The prime minister said the military rulers after 1975 misguided the meritorious students by giving them illegal arms and luring them to wealth. They also started politics of killing on the campuses.
Earlier, she inaugurated Chhatra League's new website with address: www.bsl.org.bd.
BCL President HM Badruzzaman Sohag and General Secretary Siddiqui Nazmul Alam, spoke among others on the occasion.
