I have found lakhs of brothers after losing three brothers in 75: PM

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina said, we the two sisters lost our family in seventy five. I have found lakhs of brothers after losing three brothers. But the people of Bangladesh lost their spirit of independence, spirit of liberation war. After 1975 children, teenagers could not know the history of liberation war. History was distorted.

She said these in her speech at a program on the occasion of 99th birth anniversary of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and National Children's Day at Tungipara in Gopalganj on Sunday.

The Prime Minister said, the dream of Bangabandhu was that children will be like real human. I am working according to that vision. Children of today will get a beautiful life in future, that is our pledge.

Greeting all presented there she said, Bangabandhu was born in this land of Tungipara, he was also laid to eternal rest here. He was born in this month and in this month he declared the independence.

The Prime Minister said, if this leader was not born then we would not be able to provide our self identity as an independent nation and today the birth anniversary of that leader is being observed. He loved the country. His heart cried seeing the condition of poor from his childhood. To tell about sufferings of those people he served jail year after year. But no torture, repression even the gallows could not create any hurdle to his activities of standing beside the people. He built Bangladesh as an independent nation.

Sheikh Hasina said, after 75 children-teenagers of Bangladesh could not know the real history of liberation war. History was distorted. But nobody can hide the truth. Truth has won. Today people of Bangladesh are able to know the history and in this way the speech that could not be played for 21 years, now that speech is recognized throughout the world. It has brightened the image of Bangladesh.
