Dhaka: Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus announced today that the interim government is striving to build a broad national consensus around a renewed political system. "We are working to build a broad national consensus around a renewed political system - one that delivers inclusive, participatory, and credible elections," he stated at an event.
According to Bangladesh Sangbad Sangstha, the Chief Adviser emphasized the government's objective to establish a society where all Bangladeshis can live in peace, with pride, freedom, and dignity. These remarks were made during the UN Event on the July Uprising and Fact-Finding Report held at Hotel Intercontinental, Dhaka.
Prof Yunus acknowledged that there is much work to be done, highlighting the importance of legal accountability for those responsible for gross violations. He stated, "But justice is not only about punishment. Justice is also about ensuring that state power can never again be used to suppress, silence, or destroy its own people."
Reflecting on the past year, the Chief Adviser paid tribute to those who sacrificed their lives for this vision. "Their sacrifice paved the way for a new chapter in our history. They created a new Bangladesh, one that is rooted in hope, human rights, and democratic renewal," he concluded.
