Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir said, "The contribution of national leaders who have contributed to the independence of the country must be recognized.
Similarly, the contribution of Ziaur Rahman must also be acknowledged.
Denying Ziaur Rahman's contribution means denying independence. He said this at an exchange of views with media editors and media personalities at Hotel Lakeshore in Gulshan this afternoon on the occasion of Independence Day. Fakhrul said, . If his title is revoked, the people will not accept it.
"Independence is not the property of any group, party or individual, it is the property of the people," he said. But the importance of Ziaur Rahman's announcement must also be acknowledged.
