CHITTAGONG, Dec 24 (UNB): Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina urged the armed forces to work shoulder to shoulder with the people to safeguard country's independence and sovereignty and for overall national development.
She made the call while addressing the President Parade at Bangladesh Military Academy at Vatiary in the port city Thursday and set forth the plans and programmes of her government in the new milieu.
Hasina told the new officers that with the commission they achieved today they have been given a significant responsibility. "You have been reposed upon the sacred responsibility of protecting the country's great independence and sovereignty."
A total of 125 cadets, 32 midshipmen and 23 flight cadets were commissioned to the three services of the Bangladesh Armed forces.
Hasina laid the foundation stone of a 10-storied Bangabandhu Complex inside Bangladesh Military Academy.
An ISPR press release said, "The tower would play an important role in increasing training facilities for the Bangladesh Armed Forces' members, other countries' military officials as well as for the civil officers of the country's administration."
