Jamaat Ameer Dr. Shafiqur Rahman said, I am praying for the salvation of the departed souls who have been martyred in the recent mass uprising. We have a responsibility to their families. We want to build a just society. While visiting the families of the martyred and injured, we have become inspired by the passion and determination of the victim family members.

He said that, following the massive movement of the students, we are observing that chaos is going on in some places. Some miscreants have taken the chance to commit heinous activities i.e. grabbing people's land and looting wealth of the people. We sincerely hate those miscreants. We have to be aware so that no one can repeat the mistakes of the past. We have to restore peace, comforts and orders in the country. We want to build a country where everybody’s rights will be guaranteed.

He also said that the country cannot be divided on the basis of majority or minority. Whoever is born in this country, irrespective of caste, religion and section will be regarded as a proud citizen of the country. Bangladesh belongs to all of us. We have equal compassion for all legal citizens of this country. From the beginning of the student uprising or revolution, we have been instructing people to fulfill their duties of protecting the religious establishment of other faiths. Because, we were watching that there were some goons who wanted to create unrest in the country by creating chaotic incidents. We will not give them any such chance.

Zaker Party Secretary General Shamim Haider said that Jamaat-e-Islami and Zaker Party are one of the biggest Islamic political parties in Bangladesh. Today, we have met for exchanging views in order to build the country and also to take the people of this country forward. Together we will make our country a prosperous country.
