Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, daughter of Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, apparently became emotional while recalling many past propaganda spread out centering the construction of the Padma Bridge.
While speaking at a mammoth rally at Janjira, she highlighted the various propaganda against Padma Bridge and the negative remarks made targeting her family.
"They were defamed and false information was spread against them," she added.
The premier also extended her thanks to Economic Affairs Advisor Dr Mashiur Rahman, the then Communications Minister Syed Abul Hossain and the then Communications Secretary Mosharraf Hossain Bhuiyan.
"Padma Bridge is the answer to all these insults," she added.
