They exploited this country, but no one gave freedom. The Father of the Nation, the son of Tungipara, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman gave us the freedom. And we are such an unfortunate nation that the Father of our Nation was killed. The Father of the Nation dreamed of economic emancipation. Our task will be to turn grief into strength and contribute to the development of Bangladesh by achieving the target of $100 billion exports by 2030.”

He said, “The assassins managed to kill the person Mujib, but Bangabandhu’s dreams and ideals continue to inspire the Bengali nation to move forward. Under the visionary leadership of Bangabandhu’s daughter Honorable Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, Bangabandhu’s dream of Sonar Bangla is becoming a reality today. The readymade garment industry has made immense contribution to this achievement.”
