Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina would not show any mercy for those who joined hands with Freedom Party, BNP and Jamaat cadres, and promoted casino and corruption in the country for their selfish goal. She earlier announced her zero tolerance policy against terrorists and corrupts after she formed her cabinet in 2019 following a landslide victory. She is only grateful to the countrymen, who voted her overwhelmingly again and again.
Sheikh Hasina, also the daughter of the Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, who sacrificed his whole life for the betterment of the Bangalee nation, only thinks about the welfare of the country. We found reflection of her determination when she formed the current cabinet. She did not pick a single member from the Sheikh family. She even did not include Engineer Khandaker Mosharraf Hossain, who is related to her through the marriage of Saima Wazed Putul. to his son.
It is mentionable that Bangabandhu had faced problems from some of his family members and now Sheikh Hasina is also having bitter experience from them. In her ongoing cleansing drive against corruption and terrorism, she never thinks of her family members or her party men. She only thinks about building a developed nation curbing corruption from all sectors of the society.
She first started her cleansing drive from Bangladesh Chhatra League, the student front of Awami League. Next, we saw the drives in Jubo League. No terrorists and corrupts will be included in any committee of Awami League, Jubo League and Chhatra League and other bodies, as part of her cleansing initiatives.
In Sunday’s meeting with Jubo League at her official residence Ganabhaban in the city, Jubo League top brass leaders including Omar Farooq Chowdhury, and Bhola-3 constituency's AL MP Nurunnabi Chowdhury Shaon were not allowed entry. The most surprising indication was not inviting Awami League’s influential presidium member Sheikh Fazlul Karim Selim and Awami League joint secretary Jahangir Kabir Nanok. Both of them are former chairmen of Jubo League.
They have strong network and influence in Jubo League. Under their shelter, some Jubo League leaders were desperate in committing various crimes including murder, extortion, illegal drug business, land grabbing and tender manipulation across the country. Expelled Dhaka City South Jubo League president Ismail Hossain Chowdhury Samrat recruited some notorious cadres of BNP and Freedom Party, after getting green signal from some corrupt influential leaders of the ruling party.
Among them, Khaled Mahmud Bhuiyan , expelled Jubo League’s Dhaka City South unit organizing secretary was given the vital post in exchange of huge amount of bribes to various leaders, sources said. Pro-BNP contactor GK Shamim was also awarded party post in such dirty way, after managing some high voltage Awami League leaders.
himself was directly involved in Jatiya Party politics. But he was finally made Jubo League president after he married the sister of an influential presidium member. The influential leader sheltered most of the notorious criminals in and out of the Jubo League for a long time.
SK Selim, the brother of the influential Awami League presidium member, also picked notorious criminal Selim Prodhan, who was a close associate of convicted BNP acting chairman Tarique Zia, sources said. Getting all these information, Sheikh Hasina, also the president of the Awami League announced stern action against corrupt Jubo League senior leaders.
Despite her ongoing initiatives to clean her party and its associate organizations, the strong syndicate tried to bring their own men as the convener and member secretary of the council preparation committee. Their hired men started greeting an young parliamentarian, who is nephew of the influential presidium member, in the social media claiming that he was made convener of Jubo League.
The influential presidium member of Awami League also lobbied to make his own brother the member secretary of the council preparation committee. But due to bold intervention of Sheikh Hasina, Chayan Islam was finally declared the convener of the Jubo League’s council preparation committee, without consulting with the two influential leaders of the Awami League central committee. Such political cleansing will continue, sources said .
