Hizb ut-Tahrir organized demonstration in Dhaka calling for the removal of Sheikh Hasina and her government

Hundreds of people attended a demonstration organized by Hizb ut-Tahrir today calling for the removal of Sheikh Hasina and her government and the re-establishment of the Khilafah. The demonstration started from Muktangon and finished outside the national press club. Before finishing the programme, a senior member of the party delivered a speech in which he said, despite the government’s repressive measures, Hizb ut-Tahrir organized the demonstration to speak for the Ummah and on behalf of the Ummah. He said the Muslims of the country want to see the back of Sheikh Hasina and her government. Sheikh Hasina is a loyal agent of the crusaders and polytheists – US, Britain and India.

The government of Sheikh Hasina collaborated with the Indian polytheist state in the killing of army officers at the BDR headquarters in February 2009 to weaken the BDR and the Army of Bangladesh.   Her government is securing the interests of imperialist powers, but it has done nothing to fulfil its promises to the people. The subservient stance taken by Sheikh Hasina and her government is a crime against Islam, and the Muslims.

The speaker said the root cause of the country’s problems is the kufr democratic system. Khaleda Zia and the BNP alliance is not an alternative to Sheikh Hasina and the Awami League alliance. Only the Khilafah can fulfil the needs of the Ummah and challenge the imperialist disbelievers and polytheists. Hizb ut-Tahrir urges the people to reject the government of Sheikh Hasina and the kufr democratic system. And calls upon the people of power, the descendants of Khalid ibn Walid to give the party nusrah to remove the current government and re-establish the Khilafah.
