Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami Ameer Dr. Shafiqur Rahman has called for observing 'National Revolution and Solidarity Day' with due dignity on November 7. He made this call in a statement today, Wednesday.

He said, "November 7 is the National Revolution and Solidarity Day. This day is very significant in the history of Bangladesh. On November 7, 1975, all the freedom-loving people took to the streets to protect the country's independence and sovereignty and to confront all conspiracies and plots against the country.

On November 3, 1975, Major General Khaled Musharraf plotted to bring the Awami League back to power by staging a military coup. Then our patriotic soldiers and the people unitedly took to the streets on November 7 with the slogan of Naraya e Takbir ,Allahu Akbar and defended the independence and sovereignty of the country by resisting the conspiracies of Khaled Musharraf.

Our patriotic military forces have repeatedly saved the country from foreign hegemonic conspiracies. On August 5, the students and people of the country, exchanging many fresh lives and blood, freed the country from the grip of 15 and a half years of Awami fascism, and the country's military forces stood by the students and people. We are going to celebrate November 7 at a time when the nation is going through various crises. Various conspiracies have started to hand the nation over to fascism again. The nation is hearing the footsteps of fascism again. If the fascists return, the nation will fall into a great crisis. In this situation, to protect the nation, patriotic students and people who believe in multi-party democracy, regardless of party or opinion, and the current government and military forces must work together.

Therefore, I am calling on all branches of Jamaat and patriotic students to observe the 'National Revolution and Solidarity Day' on November 7 with due dignity by taking a solemn oath to firmly confront all kinds of conspiracies and plots and to unite to protect the independence and sovereignty of the country.

Jatiya Party Secretary General Md. Mujibul Haque Chunnu said, given the situation, it seems that a depoliticization process is underway in the country today. Some quarters are using a section of students to destabilize the country, which is in no way desirable.

He made these comments while addressing the meeting of additional secretaries general at the Banani office of Jatiya Party on Sunday (November 3).

The Jatiya Party Secretary General said that the minus two formula has failed in the past. The process that is underway to depoliticize it now will also fail. He said that the prices of goods in the country are beyond the purchasing power of the common men, and public life has become miserable due to the deterioration of the law and order situation. The government must pay close attention to this.

He condemned the attack, arson, and looting on the central office of the Jatiya Party on November 1 and the attack and arson on the Khulna office on November 2. He also demanded that those involved in this arson be brought to justice.

Additional Secretaries General present were Md. Rezaul Islam Bhuiyan, Liaqat Hossain Khoka, Md. Zahirul Islam Zahir, Mohammad Atiqur Rahman Atiq, Mostafa Al Mahmud, Monirul Islam Milon. Invited guests included Presidium members Mir Abdus Sabur Asud, ATU Taj Rahman, Zahirul Islam Rubel, Md. Jasim Uddin Bhuiyan and Md. Arifur Rahman Khan.

Dhaka: Jatiya Party has temporarily postponed the rally and protest march program to be held at the Jatiya Party central office, Kakrail.

The party informed the media about the matter in a message sent to the media on Friday. It also said that the Jatiya Party has taken this decision with respect to the law as the Dhaka Metropolitan Police Ordinance, under the power of Section 29 (meeting place), has banned any kind of meeting, rally, procession, demonstration, etc. in the surrounding areas including Building No. 66, Pioneer Road, Kakrail. The next program will be officially announced by the Jatiya Party later on.
