Jamaat ameer calls for national unity based on 2024 revolution

GAZIPUR, Oct 25 (UNB): Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami Ameer Dr. Shafiqur Rahman has underscored the need for national unity rooted in the spirit of the 2024 student-people mass revolution.

The Jamaat leader came up with the remarks while speaking at the Rukan (Members) Council of the Jamaat-e-Islami Gazipur district unit on Friday.

He urged all political parties to align with the collective movement rather than diverge from its principles.

"We want to make it clear that the foundation of national unity must be the 2024 mass revolution," Dr. Shafiqur said. "Our party and others must not consider paths that ignore the spirit of this movement."

He further appealed to political leaders, urging them not to oppose the people's collective demands. "We must stand unwaveringly with the people," he said, warning that no party should attempt to disregard or undermine the just aspirations of the public.

Addressing the need for cohesion among political factions, he said, "This country belongs to all of us. Our nation does not want to see divisions among parties over fundamental interests." He highlighted the importance of national solidarity to confront ongoing and future challenges, saying, "We must face every crisis and conspiracy as one, with a strong unity, Inshallah."

The Jamaat chief also spoke to the aspirations of the younger generation, stressing their desire for a 'humane Bangladesh' where civil rights are guaranteed from birth to death. "We envision a welfare state that upholds justice for all citizens without exception," he added.
