Prime Minister greets freedom fighters on Independence Day

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Monday greeted the freedom fighters of the country on the occasion of the 48th Independence and National Day.

The Prime Minister, like other occasions, sent flowers, fruits and sweetmeats to the war-wounded freedom fighters (FFs) and members of the martyred freedom fighters’ families at Martyred and War-wounded Freedom Fighters' Rehabilitation Centre (Muktijoddha Tower-1) on Gaznavi Road at Mohammadpur in the city.

PM's Assistant Private Secretary (APS) Saifuzzaman Shikhar, Deputy Press Secretary Ashraful Alam Khokan, Protocol Officer Khurshid-ul-Alam and Assignment Officer Gazi Hafizur Rahman handed over these items to them in the morning.

The war-wounded FFs and members of the martyred FFs’ families thanked and expressed gratitude to the Prime Minister for remembering them on various occasions like the Independence Day, the Victory Day, Eid and Pahela Baishakh.

They also expressed gratitude to the Prime Minister for undertaking massive steps for their rehabilitation including construction of Mutijoddha Tower-1, a 13-storey residential-cum-commercial building at Mohammadpur.

They said they get due honour only when the Awami League and Sheikh Hasina remain in state power.

They wished the Prime Minister good health and long life.
