BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia on Saturday urged the people of Bangladesh to work for national unity in line with the spirit of the Liberation War in order to safeguard democracy.
She made the call in a message greeting Bangladeshis on the occasion of Victory Day.
Without mentioning any name, Khaleda also said, “The imperialist forces are out to make Bangladesh a slave country by snatching its independence.”
Some ‘identified quarter’ of the country is backing the ‘imperialist forces’, she said.
“So, we will have to build the national unity to save the country’s independence,” she added.
The BNP chief also remembered those killed and tortured by the Pakistani forces during the War in 1971.
