Popular Bangla singer Baby Nazneen said the martyrs of the anti-discrimination student movement will be our perennial inspiration.
“We will never forget these brave martyrs as we got a new Bangladesh through the student-people movement,” she said.
She said this at the Syedpur Airport on Saturday.
Baby Nazneen said, “The dictatorship has fallen through the movement of students and mass people. I will stand by the martyred families as much as I can.”
At this time, she remembered martyred President Ziaur Rahman, three-time Prime Minister Khaleda Zia and Tarique Rahman and said I want to do something for my birthplace Syedpur and want everyone's cooperation in this regard.
In response to journalists' questions, she said, “I cannot say whether the party will give me nomination or not. However, the issue of elections has not come up for discussion yet.”
She also said, “Building a prosperous Bangladesh is our commitment. I have come to Syedpur to seek well-wishes for the recovery of uncompromising leader Khaleda Zia. I ask for prayers for the martyrs who were killed in the student-people uprising.”
BNP party leaders, journalists and well-wishers were present at the arrival of Baby Nazneen. At that time, the leaders and activists greeted her with flowers. At the airport, Syedpur BNP district wing vice-president Advocate Obaidur Rahman, joint general secretary Shamsul Haque, organizing secretary MA Parvez Liton, district Jubo Dal convener Tarique Aziz and others welcomed her.
Baby Nazneen later went to the Bangalipur residence of Sajjad Hossain, who was shot dead by the police during the movement to overthrow the dictatorship, and inquired about his family. Then she went to her ancestral home in Sarkarpara in Saidpur town. She is scheduled to participate in the prayer mahfil organized by BNP on Saturday afternoon.
