Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina today said the Six-Point Demand
raised by Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was the "Magna Carta" of
Bangalees as it had prepared the people for independence of the country.
"The Six-Point Demand prepared the people fully for
Independence and propelled them to the War of Liberation. Actually, it
(Six-Point) was the "Magna Carta", through which people of the
country had prepared themselves for Independence," she said.
The premier was addressing a discussion marking the
Six-Point Day organized by Bangladesh Awami League at its central office in the
city's 23 Bangabandhu Avenue.
She chaired the event, joining virtually from her official
residence Ganabhaban here.
Sheikh Hasina, also President of the ruling Awami League
(AL), said the Six-Point later turned into one-point and Bangladesh attained
Independence.
She said, "It was achieved through our blood, Manu
Miah's blood, and in the letters of the blood of the Six-Point.
Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman had
firm confidence which actually came from his courage, honesty, belief and
foresight, she said, adding: "That is why we have attained
independence."
Mentioning that Bangabandhu himself formulated the Six-Point
Demand, she said ex-mayor Mohammad Hanif, the then personal assistant of
Bangabandhu during his service life in Alfa Insurance, had written it using
typewriting machine in both Bangla and English as Bangabandhu by his own verbally
telling him to compose it.
AL General Secretary Obaidul Quader, MP delivered the
introductory address at the function.
Publicity and Publication Secretary Dr. Abdus Sobhan Golap,
MP moderated the discussion from Ganabhaban end.
At the outset of the event, one-minute silence was observed
to pay tribute to the martyrs of six-point and other movements as well as
deceased in Sitakunda fire.
