Urging the BNP chairperson to engage in talks to solve problems, if any, shunning the path of killings, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Friday said her government would get tough as much as needed to protect the lives of people and their property, and thus ensure peace.

 

“She (Khaleda) had wanted to thwart the 10th parliamentary elections, but failed. So, I’ll ask her to stop killings and not to cause further sufferings to people. If you’ve something to say, it could be solved through holding discussions…but, if you don’t stop killings, AL knows it better how to stop that,” she said.

 

The Awami League chief was addressing a mammoth public rally at Suhrawardy Udyan in the afternoon marking the historic Homecoming Day of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.

Syeda Sajeda Chowdhury presided over the meeting organised by Awami League.

 

Asking her arch rival Khaleda Zia not to inflict further sufferings on people by enforcing hartals and blockades in the name of movement, Hasina said, “Hold discussion and solve problem, if any.”

 

The premier also expressed her strong vow that her government would face any kind of resistance in the way of economic and social life of country’s people.

“The children have suffered due to hartals and blockades. I want to say that the schools would continue to do their regular operations as well as the common people maintain their daily life ….I’ll also urge the country’s people to resist together subversive acts,”
