She made the remarks while addressing an event marking the 40th anniversary of Centre for the Rehabilitation of the Paralysed (CRP) at Savar at noon.

About Awami League council, she said qualified leaders will be picked in its next council as the party did in the past.

We want the people of this country to have good leadership that will blend the experiences of the veterans with the courage and energy of the youth,” said Dipu Moni, also the joint general secretary of the ruling party.
