AL will come to power regardless of propaganda: Hasan

Information and Broadcasting Minister and Awami League (AL) Joint General Secretary Dr Hasan Mahmud has said his party will come to power despite some people spreading propaganda.

"A section of people and groups, who don't like the country's development, are carrying out different propaganda at home and abroad. But, Awami League will come to power again through free and fair polls," he said at a view exchange event with Bangladesh expatriates in Canada.

While addressing the function at the AL Toronto office on Sunday, the minister said most of the propaganda against Bangladesh is being hatched from abroad, according to a media release.

"I am urging all expatriates to give a befitting reply to those propagandas," he said.

Dr Hasan said conspiracy against Bangladesh was also held in 1971. But Bangladesh had achieved independence, he added.

"Similarly, no one can hinder the ongoing development of Bangladesh under the dynamic leadership of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina," he also said.
