Prime Minister Tarique Rahman today handed over job appointment letters to 10 family members of martyrs and seriously injured persons of the July Mass Uprising.
The Prime Minister handed over the appointment letters at his office in Tejgaon this afternoon, said PM’s Deputy Press Secretary Hasan Shiplu.
The recipients are martyr Md Sohag’s wife Sabina Akter Rima, martyr Md Shahriar’s wife Raziya Khatun, martyr Md Abdullah Kabir’s wife Afsana Akter, martyr Md Mostafa Kamal Raju’s wife Akleema Akter, martyr Md Jewel’s wife Sumaiya Akter Suborna, martyr Miraj’s sister Samia Islam Popy, martyr Ahsan Kabir’s wife Hafiza Akter Happy, martyr Omar Nurul Absar’s wife Farzana Akter Rani, injured Md Abdul Matin’s wife Sabana Akter and seriously injured Md Zulfikar Alam’s wife Arzu Akter.
After handing over the appointment letters, the Prime Minister spoke with the recipients and inquired about the wellbeing of their families.
Referring to the sacrifices made by people at different times, from the 1971 Liberation War to the July Movement of 2024, Tarique Rahman said the ultimate purpose of those sacrifices was to build a better Bangladesh where people could live better lives.
“Those whom we have lost, those who were physically injured or otherwise affected—all their sacrifices were driven by a single aspiration—to make Bangladesh a better country,” he said.
The Prime Minister said the country must continue moving forward despite the limitations faced by the state and government.
“What we received is not the most important thing. Rather, what we were able to give to the country is what matters most,” he said.
He expressed hope that continued efforts based on this principle would help build the Bangladesh people aspire to see in the future.
Tarique Rahman said the government would continue its efforts to ensure due recognition of the sacrifices made by those who were killed or injured during the July Movement.
Fatema Tuz Zohra, mother of martyr Abdullah Bin Zahid, who recently joined government service, and injured July fighter Soheli Tamanna were also present and met the Prime Minister.
The family members expressed gratitude to the Prime Minister after receiving the appointment letters.
PM’s Additional Press Secretary Atikur Rahman Ruman and Amra BNP Poribar Member Secretary agriculturist Moksedul Momin Mithun were also present.
