Re: [ALOCHONA] AK Fazlul Huq's 46th death anniversary today

We must show respect to him. He was a "Sangskarbadi". He introduced so many changes in politics and administration from which the present India Dalal CTG is learning. I am sure our World Bank Bureaucrat turned CTG (pro-Saifur because Saifur Rahman brought him from the World Bank and installed as the Bangladesh Governor) never heard of his name. He left the then East Pakistan in 1963 and returned to Bangladesh in 2001 when Saifur Rahman installed him as the Bangladesh Bank's Governor. All these years, his pillow was found wet from his tears for Bangladesh. This gentleman does not have even a village home (there is one but he never visited it). I am pretty sure he would Bangladesh in the first available flight when he is out of power. So crying for Mr A.K.Fazlu Huq is nothing but "Vondami"

The 46th anniversary of death of national leader Abul Kashem Fazlul Huq will be observed today.
Different socio-cultural and political organisations have chalked up elaborate programmes to mark the day.
The programmes include prayer sessions, placing flowers at the grave of Fazlul Huq and discussion meetings.
In separate messages Saturday, president Iajuddin Ahmed and chief adviser Fakhruddin Ahmed paid glowing tributes to the great leader who had fought for the downtrodden and the farmers' right to land all his life.
In his message, the president said the nation would always remember with great respect the glorious role AK Fazlul Huq had played in establishing the rights of farmers and workers.
'Sher-e-Bangla's extraordinary personality, political wisdom, firm confidence in democracy and mental strength still inspire us in our nation-building activities', Iajuddin said.
In his message, the chief adviser said Fazlul Huq had played a pioneering role in poverty alleviation, economic emancipation of the poor and spreading education.
He said, 'Sher-e-Bangla freed the farmers from oppression by forming Rin Salishi Board (loan arbitration board) and established their rights to cropland.'
Sher-e-Bangla Jatiya Smriti Sangsad will place flowers at his grave and offer prayers there on the occasion. It will also hold milad and a discussion in the city today.
Leaders and activists of Jatiya Party will place flowers and hold a prayer session at his grave at 8:00am, said a press release.
The secretary general of Jatiya Party, Sheikh Shahidul Islam, in a statement said that AK Fazlul Huq had played a pioneering role in setting up Rin Salishi Board to free peasants from the debt cycle during the British Raj.
'His contributions towards welfare of common people are a glorious chapter in the history of this region', he said, adding: 'Sher-e-Bangla will remain a source of inspiration for the people of Bangladesh forever.'
Progressive Democratic Party will hold a discussion meeting at its central office at 4:00 pm marking the day.
