Awami League has pardoned Jahangir Alam, former general secretary of Gazipur city unit of Awami League who is also former mayor of Gazipur City Corporation (GCC).
The ruling Awami League sent a letter to Jahangir Alam in this regard. The letter signed by Awami League general secretary Obaidul Quader said that the party’s central executive committee announces general forgiveness to the applicants who sought apology in condition of not involving any anti-ideology and anti-organisation activities in the future. As per the party policy, you (Jahangir Alam) are also pardoned, reads the letter.
However, any anti-ideology or anti-organisation activities in the future will be considered unforgivable, the letter said.
Earlier, Jahangir Alam was expelled from the party in November 2021 after a video clip of him making derogatory remarks about Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and expressing doubts about the numbers of martyrs in the Liberation War went viral in social media.
