Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami Ameer Dr Shafiqur Rahman on Thursday urged political parties and people to work together to save the country from conspiracy.  

Speaking at a discussion organised by the Dhaka Metropolitan Unit of Jamaat to mark the National Revolution and Solidarity Day conference at Al Falah auditorium in the capital he said, "We urge political parties to work together for the sake of the country and to build a discrimination free society and a new Bangladesh."

Shafiqur Rahman said, "If we still think of divisions among us it will bring bigger danger for the nation." 

Addressing Jamaat activists, he said, "There is no compromise on the question of independence and sovereignty of the country."

"We never engage in anti-social activities like corruption, rape and extortion.  But the Awami League always targeted us and banned the party twice because of our transparent politics," he said.

He underscored the army's patriotic role on August 5 after the ouster of the Sheikh Hasina-led Awami League government. 

Jamaat Ameer said corruption must be tackled. That is why political parties and leaders have to fix their political character.

"If the leaders are not corrupt, the country will be free from corruption," he said.

He said, "There is no compromise on the question of independence and sovereignty of the country. You have to live like a tiger, not like a cat."

Shafiqur Rahman has called for forming a new probe committee to re-investigate the killings during the mutiny at the then Bangladesh Rifles (BDR) headquarters in the capital's Pilkhana on  February 25-26 in 2009.

"Conspirators who failed on November 7 in 1975, carried out the BDR mutiny where 57 army officers were killed and left the country's independence, sovereignty and borders unprotected. Therefore, everyone should take an oath to build a new Bangladesh with these lessons," said Shafiqur Rahman.

On this day in 1975, the solders and the people took to the streets to protect the country's independence and to free the country from misrule.
