BNP will present the correct history of liberation war: Amir Khusru

BNP standing committee member Amir Khosru Mahmud Chowdhury said his party will present the correct history of the liberation war on the golden end of independence. It is important to review the way people are misled by giving wrong information. It is important to come up with the truth.

He said this while interacting with journalists at Chittagong Club on Monday on the occasion of the golden celebration of independence.

Amir Khosru said, ‘When politicians decide how to write history, it is no longer history, it is a propaganda.’ He further said, ‘The declaration of independence and the first rebellion of the liberation war came from Chittagong. Therefore, the history of Chittagong is pre-liberation and wartime unforgettable. President Zitaur Rahman Kalurghat was not silent on the announcement of independence from the center of the country.’

Amir Khosru said, ‘Pakistan has taken away the right to vote. The people of this country fought on the streets and fought. Today, the democratic people of this country have to struggle for voting rights and democracy to celebrate the golden opposing independence of freedom. People's right to vote is being shameless.’

Iqbal Hasan Mahmud Tuku, a member of the BNP's standing committee, said, ‘The history of the liberation war of Bangladesh has now been a page. It is natural that there will be more than one hero in a liberation war. Now only one person is not a single person.’

The meeting was attended by BNP Chetsar Person Advisor and former Ambassador Golam Akbar Khondkar, BNP Organizing Secretary Shama Obatad, Independence Golden State Celebration Midita Committee Member Advocate Farzana Sharmin, Chittagong Metropolitan BNP Convener Dr. Shahadat Hossain and others.
