Awami League (AL) General Secretary and Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader today (Dec 24) urged all the pro-liberation forces to get united under the leadership of the party president and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. 
 
He said: “Sheikh Hasina should be the reliable address of our all pro-liberation forces. There is no alternative to Sheikh Hasina in the state power to prevent fire terrorism.” 

Obaidul Quader made the urge while presenting the general secretary’s report at the first session of AL’s 22nd national council at the historic Suhrawardy Udyan in the city.

He also said that AL and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina should be brought to power again for the welfare of Bangladesh.
 
“Awami League must be saved for saving Bangladesh. AL and Sheikh Hasina should be brought to power again (to this end),” he added.

Prime Minister and AL President Sheikh Hasina inaugurated the council by hoisting the national flag and releasing pigeons and balloons at 10.30am. Later, she presided over the first session.
 
He added: “No matter how many disasters and catastrophes came (in the country), we were and are beside the people. It’s our commitment to stand by the country’s people”.
 
Earlier in the inaugural function, Quader hoisted the party flag while presidents of 78 organizational districts raised the national flag while general secretaries the party flag at the function.
