Chief Adviser Prof Muhammad Yunus yesterday urged key organisers of the student-led mass uprising to continue their efforts to make students’ and the people’s dream of a new Bangladesh come true.

“For the dream, they sacrificed their lives. We must make that dream a reality. We have no other way,” he said.

Not only are the people of the country eager to build a new nation, but Bangladeshis all over the world are also saying they want to be a part of realising that dream, he said at a views-exchange meeting with the students at the Chief Adviser’s Office yesterday.

Yunus said when he sees graffiti on the walls, it surprises him. “How did the students come up with so many words? There were no poets, no writers, and no scholars behind them,” he said.

Warning the students about possible attempts to sideline them from their nation-building work, he said, “Don’t give up until the job that you have taken up is done.”

Students have awakened a wave; they have also awakened the youth of the whole world. “The youth of other countries also say they want to learn about us because they need this in their country too,” Yunus said.
