Senior leaders of the Awami League yesterday observed a two-minute silence programme in a different manner.
Instead of No chief guest, no special guests, no traditional political speech or usual fixed seats for guests, a small, white and black cloth covered stage.
Only a simple, small sentence,‘ In remembering the Shaheed of 21 August, 2004’ written on the simple black banner.
All the ruling party activists along with some common people were looking very attentive and waiting for the whistle to formally start the scheduled two minute silence programme remembering the martyrs who sacrificed their highly valuable lives to protect the life of their favorite leader Sheikh Hasina, then the leader of the opposition, now the prime minister from the deadly grenade attack during the BNP-Jamaat alliance government.
When the momentum came, it was 5: 22 pm, Syed Ashraful Islam, the Secretary General of Awami League, also the LGRD minister, whistled to start the silence programme.
Most of the senior Awami League leaders especially Awami League presidium member Begum Matia Chowdhury were seen very emotional and a bit crying, removing tears by hand tissue during the silence programme.
Syed Mezbahuddin Ahmed, the central organizing secretary of Awami league said while crying, non but Almighty Allah save the life of our president, the killers tried to eliminate the full leadership in a very planned way.
The ruling party set up a stage with a very big pendle, which covered almost all the blank areas adjourning to the party office.
Ignoring the heavy raining outside the followers of Bangabandhu, Father of the Nation, and his daughter Sheikh Hasina, we came here to protest such barbaric attack by the high ups of the BNP-Jammat led alliance government, he said while walking out from the spot.
All people even the journalists who went to cover the event keep a complete silence till the Ashraf again whistled ending the progrmme.
