On March 7, 1971, on this historic ground, the nation stood in unison and roared with the pledge to liberate this country from the clutches of the Pakistan Army and its top aide, Jamaat, at the call of the country\u2019s founding father, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman,\u201d the Awami League said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the outfit\u2019s proven record of promoting terrorism and relentless assault on the Liberation War legacy, the Yunus regime embraced Jamaat and has been sponsoring the outfit\u2019s plot to promote Pakistanization, a brazen act to deny justice to millions of victims of war crimes and glorify war criminals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Freedom fighters and journalists alike say that Yunus\u2019 father, Muslim League leader Dula Mia Saudagor, and his brothers acted as accomplices of the genocider Pakistani Army in 1971.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/?p=2102\">\u2018I am a militant\u2019 slogan chanted, al-Qaeda flags displayed again in Dhaka<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/?p=729\">Sheikh Hasina: Jamaat-backed tribunal will not deliver justice<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe assert the effort by the regime to alter the history of the Liberation War aligns with a meticulous plot to accomplish the unfinished agenda of Pakistan that seeks to destroy the secular polity and tolerance and wipe out the history of genocide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cDespite public surrender, five decades have elapsed, but the Pakistan Army has not offered an apology for the war crimes. Similarly, the Jamaat also seeks to wipe out the gruesome war crimes being guarded by the Yunus regime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cIn collusion with this anti-Liberation Force, the regime has slapped an extrajudicial ban on the Awami League, a party that led the struggle for independence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cBut people will unite and raise their voice against the ongoing state-sponsored onslaught to wipe out the legacy of the Liberation War.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Awami League said the Yunus regime inflicted immense suffering on thousands of ordinary citizens who did not join the Jamaat rally on the street, as on-duty law enforcement officials, including police, ensured that the streets remained open exclusively for Jamaat supporters going to the rally, causing massive gridlock and bringing traffic to a standstill. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But the police did not ensure seamless passage for thousands of commuters who did not join the rally, an undue privilege for an outfit that publicly campaigned for the imposition of Sharia law and opposed secular polity and the women&#8217;s rights commission recommendations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier, the regime cancelled the scheduled holidays of railway staffers and introduced special service allowing public trains exclusively to be used by Jamaat supporters to arrive at the venue, another special privilege for the outfit that executed one of the worst crimes against humanity, including genocide, in 1971 to thwart the struggle for independence.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Bangladesh Awami League has condemned the unconstitutional interim government, led by Muhammad Yunus, for allowing the Jamaat-e-Islami, an anti-liberation fundamentalist outfit that committed genocide in 1971 and terms the&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":1385,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[20,42],"tags":[88,55,177,77,50,71,54,180,56,178,555,176,63,557,556,64],"class_list":["post-2113","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-politics","tag-1971-genocide","tag-al-badr","tag-al-shams","tag-awami-league","tag-interim-government","tag-islami-chhatra-shibir","tag-jamaat-e-islami","tag-liberation-war","tag-muhammad-yunus","tag-mujahid-bahini","tag-peace-committee","tag-razakar","tag-sheikh-hasina","tag-tikka-khan","tag-yahya-khan","tag-yunus-gang"],"brizy_media":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2113","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2113"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2113\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2141,"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2113\/revisions\/2141"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1385"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2113"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2113"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2113"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
