Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's photo has been removed from Bangabhaban's Darbar Hall, reports UNB.
"The photo of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman-post '71 fascist-has been removed from Darbar Hall. It is a shame for us that we couldn't remove his pictures from Bangabhaban after the August 5. Apologies. But he won't be seen anywhere till people's July spirit lives on," Mahfuj Alam posted on his Facebook page on Monday.
"AL must acknowledge and apologise for what Sheikh Mujib and his daughter have done to the people of Bangladesh, starting from non-democratic '72 constitution to famine, laundering of billions, and extrajudicial killings of thousands of dissidents and opponents (72-75, 2009-2024). Then, we can talk about pre-'71 Sheikh Mujib. Without apologies and trials of fascists, there won't be any kind of reconciliation," he added.
According to Article 4A of Bangladesh's Constitution, the portrait of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, "shall be preserved and displayed" in prominent government offices, including those of the president, prime minister, speaker, and chief justice, as well as government and semi-government offices, educational institutions, and embassies.
