C T Online Desk: Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina today assured the injured people to provide proper treatment and said culprits should be given appropriate punishment so that none can play games with the countrymen’s lives anymore.
“They (perpetrators of havoc and atrocities) should be given appropriate punishment so that none can play ducks and drakes with the lives of the country’s people anymore,” she said.
The Premier made this remark while visiting the injured people in the Dhaka Medical College Hospital (DMCH) who came under attacks during the violence unleashed by the BNP-Jamaat taking advantage of student’s quota reform movement.
She also reiterated her call to the countrymen to find the culprits who committed such heinous acts.
The Prime Minister also stressed the need for proper punishment to the perpetrators of the recent countrywide mayhem in a bid to stop playing with the lives of the people.
“It is a very painful situation. So many people are now injured and killed,” she said in an emotion-choked voice.
She said, “I never wanted such a ‘procession of death’ would take place. But such a thing happened in Bangladesh today. I never wanted anyone to lose their dear ones in this country.”
Sheikh Hasina said her government has been implementing all necessary steps for elevating socio-economic condition of the people and a better life for the people.
“My question is what achievement they’ve gained from it. How many people lost their lives! How many families were affected!” she added.
The premier prayed for eternal peace of the departed souls and wished quick recovery of the injured ones.
“We’ll do whatever is needed for their treatments. There was no deficiency in providing them with treatments,” she said.
