Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami Secretary General Mia Golam Porwar foday (1 May) said their party, in its present form, should not be equated with its 1971-era version.
“The party’s constitution has been amended several times in line with the demands of the time. The introduction to the current constitution mentions respect for the sacrifices and struggles of the heroic freedom fighters of the Great Liberation War,” he said.
The Jamaat leader was addressing a workers’ rally organised by the Cumilla city unit of the Bangladesh Sramik Kalyan Federation at the Cumilla Town Hall ground, marking historic May Day.
He said that despite so many constitutional changes, a group is trying to keep the old debate alive. “This is not an expression of patriotism or the spirit of independence; rather, it is part of a foreign conspiracy to divide the nation.”
Porwar said such issues need to be resolved quickly in the interest of the country and stressed the importance of national unity to ensure a better future for the next generation.
