Wrongdoers would never be spared: PM

July 27, 2010

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina Tuesday said some opportunist people have sneaked into her ruling party with a perception that they would remain safe after doing wrongs but she cautioned wrongdoers would never be spared.

“I like to say in clear-cut terms that whoever they may be — Chhatra League or Swechchhasebak Leagu – would never ever be spared after committing offences or repressing people,” she said. “I will not tolerate any kind of indiscipline or chaos.”

Hasina came up with the toughest warning at the 16th founding anniversary of Swechchhasebak Leagu at Ganobhaban in the morning.

Reacting to the certain remarks BNP leader Salahuddin Qader Chowdhury made on Monday regarding amendments of the Constitution, she said “some people are trying to frighten me with the consequences of my father. I would like to ask these people who are speaking like this and trying to mislead the public to look back to their past.”

Hasina said the people of this country did not forget the role they had played during 1971. “It’s futile exercise to try to scare me,” she said, recalling the plantation of 70-80 kgs of bombs at Kotalipara and subsequent grenade attacks to kill her.

“But, the Almighty Allah saved me. As long as Allah would keep me alive none will be able to cause any harm to me,” the emotion-charged Hasina told the anniversary meeting.
