Ameer of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami Dr. Shafiqur Rahman said, "Jamaat wants to build a corruption-free and humanitarian Bangladesh to materialize the dreams of the martyrs of July and August." This country lost its way through the brutal killings of 28th October, 2006. Since then, the young and wayward nation have been fighting to liberate the nation and finally we became free on 5th August, 2024.

He said these things in his speech as the chief guest at the exchange meeting with the family members of the martyrs and the injured from October 28, 2006 to August 5, 2024, organized by the Dhaka North City Jamaat-e-Islami at the Bangladesh- China Friendship Conference Center in the capital today, Sunday, October 27.

Dr. Shafiqur Rahman called for inclusion of history of fascism and massacre in textbooks which have been carried out by Awami League from October 28, 2006 to August 5, 2024.

He said, "The family members of the martyrs should be thanked by giving at least one job according to their merit. Those who fought against fascism should be given priority in employment. He called upon the anti-fascist parties to stand by these victim families.

Dr. Syed Abdullah Muhammad Taher said, “October 28 was the first rehearsal for the establishment of fascism. Our sons have given their blood and their lives, yet they have not accepted defeat. We will use the change that happened on August 5 to reach our goal.”

They will be rewarded in this world and the hereafter.” He called upon all to stand united against the conspiracies of the fascist forces.”

BNP Standing Committee member Salahuddin Ahmed said, “There has been a demand to ban Awami League. This is the demand of the people. Whether Awami League has the right to do politics again after the recent mass killings, will be decided by the people's court. The people and the courts will decide whether the genocidal party can do politics or not. Attempts are being made to create a constitutional crisis. Care must be taken to avoid constitutional crisis as it may pave the way for fascism to come back.
