We are all Bangladeshis, all are here interrelated: President

President Mohammed Shahabuddin called on everyone irrespective of their religions and castes to work together to take the country forward.

“Everyone irrespective of religions and castes should work together to advance the country forward”, he said while exchanging views with the Hindu community on the occasion of Durga Puja and Bijaya Dashami at Bangabhaban here on Sunday (October 13).

The president said, “The basic message of all religions is welfare of the people. We are all Bangladeshis. All are here interrelated. There is no room for majority or minority here. All are one and belong to the same entity.”

He said religious values should be utilised for the welfare of the country and its people.

The non-communal spirit, mutual unity, amity and harmony existing in the culture of Bangladesh will contribute effectively to building a beautiful future and modern country, he said.
