Prime Minister and Leader of the House Sheikh Hasina on Thursday told the parliament that none can isolate her from the people as they have confidence and trust that she has been working for their welfare.
"You can't isolate me from the people. My strength is the people and I move ahead with their strength. The people have trust and confidence in me that I am working for them. So, the confidence and trust of the people in me is my only belongings. So, I don't care anyone as long as the countrymen are with me," she said.
She was delivering the valedictory speech in the second session of the 12th Jatiya Sangsad (JS) with Speaker Dr. Shirin Sharmin Chaudhury in the chair.
Sheikh Hasina said that she is well aware that her father Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was assassinated on August 15, 1975 as assassins failed to isolate him from the people.
The vested quarters, she said, had conducted massive propaganda against Father of the Nation despite the fact that he had given every foundation of running the state including enactment of the Constitution for the welfare of the country and its people.
"After being failed to separate him (Bangabandhu) from the people, they killed him. Attempts were also made time and again on my life," she said.
The leaders and workers of the Awami League saved her even sacrificing their lives, she said.
The premier said she will work for the country and its people ignoring all such attacks on her life.
