President Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir has called on people of all faiths and communities to work together in a spirit of mutual respect and harmony to build an inclusive, democratic, and prosperous Bangladesh.
The president made the remarks on Sunday when a delegation of the Sri Sri Hari-Guruchand Matua Mission Central Committee, led by its President Sri Padmanabha Thakur, paid a courtesy call on him at Bangabhaban.
According to President’s Press Secretary Md Sarwar Alam, the president emphasized the importance of preserving the unity and communal harmony that have long been central to Bangladesh’s national identity and social fabric.
He noted that people from different religious communities, including Hindus, Muslims, Buddhists, and Christians, had fought side by side during the country’s Liberation War and contributed collectively to Bangladesh’s independence.
