Jahangirnagar University Central Students' Union (JUCSU) Vice President Abdur Rashid Jitu, along with leaders of various hall student unions, has paid tributes to former President Ziaur Rahman and former Prime Minister Khaleda Zia.
They visited Zia Udyan in the capital on Friday morning and placed wreaths at their graves, offering special prayers and seeking forgiveness for the departed leaders.
Among others, Kamal Uddin Hall Students' Union Vice President GMM Rayan Kabir and Shaheed Rafiq-Jabbar Hall Students' Union General Secretary Shariful Islam, along with leaders from various hall student unions, accompanied the Vice President.
After paying tributes, JUCSU Vice President Jitu said former President Ziaur Rahman, as the proclaimer of independence and a pioneer of multi-party democracy, remains a source of inspiration in Bangladesh's political history. He also described former Prime Minister Khaleda Zia as a symbol of uncompromising struggle for democracy.
He further said the ideology of Ziaur Rahman, the political legacy of Khaleda Zia, and the modern state vision of Tarique Rahman together form a framework for building a humane, democratic, and discrimination-free Bangladesh.
Referring to recent developments, he stated that the July mass uprising restored the people's voting and democratic rights; however, defeated forces were still attempting to destabilise the country. He warned that such efforts would be resisted at any cost in the interest of national sovereignty and public welfare.
