Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Thursday sought justice from countrymen for massive destruction of the government establishments during recent nationwide mayhem as she paid visit to vandalised Mirpur-10 Metro rail Station.
"The people of the country have to expose them (culprits involved in nationwide mayhem) to justice. I am seeking justice from the masses. I have no word to describe the destructions," she said.
The prime minister made the appeal to the countrymen with emotion chocked voice after seeing severe devastation carried out on Mirpur 10 Metrorail Station in Dhaka, reports BSS.
She also called upon the countrymen to resist the anarchists who went on rampage for multiple days since July 17 and heavily damaged the government establishments built in the last 15 years to ease the public life and transform Bangladesh into a developed and prosperous country, cashing in on the quota reform movement.
The prime minister said her government has built the metro rail from Uttara to Motijheel with the most modern equipment as around 2.5 lakh people go to their work places and return homes easily through metro rail at the shortest possible time without being struck in jams for hours.
"Everything of our metro rail that includes the metro rail station and services are of international standard. I have visited many countries across the globe. But, our metro rail is the most modern," she said.
"But, what a grave destruction I saw today (after inspecting different parts of the Metrorail Station at Mirpur 10). How could the people of the country do that? But, they did it," she said.
She also said every official involved in the metro rail construction, has now tears in their eyes after seeing the insane havoc.
"Who are the beneficiaries of the metro rail?” the premier questioned.
“Do my government officials, ministers and I only ride the metro rail or the people? Who are getting its benefits? You, the countrymen and commoners are getting its benefits. So, my question is that why such anger on the metro rail," she said.
She continued that she didn't know when the metro rail station would come into operation.
The prime minister reminded the countrymen that they have built the metro rail before the scheduled time after confronting many hurdles.
She said the government had to overcome so many barriers to construct the metro-rail and it was completed before the scheduled time.
The metro rail services have been suspended since July 18 amid widespread destruction by the BNP-Jamaat alliance.
The metro rail will start its operation following submission of the assessment report on the damages by the inquiry committee within 10 working days after its formation on July 22.
