Human chain and rally was held to demand declaration of Pakistan as a terrorist state on the occasion of 14th anniversary of militant terrorist attacks in Mumbai. To commemorate the 14th anniversary of the militant terrorist attack in Mumbai on Saturday, November 26, Anti-Militism Movement Bangladesh organized a human chain and rally at Kamruzzaman Square in Rajshahi at 11.30 am.

This program was held under the banner of 'Movement to prevent militancy in Bangladesh' Kamruzzaman, Rajshahi metropolitan president of the organization presided over it. The central president of the organization, writer and journalist Yeaqub Badsha spoke as the chief guest. Gulam Mostafa James, President of International Human Rights Organization Legal Aid Center ASK Foundation Rajshahi Division, Principal of Bangabandhu College Rajshahi and Assistant Secretary General of the Gathok Dalal Nirmul Committee Professor Kamruzzaman, former retired Navy Commander and International Human Rights Organization Legal Aid Center ASK Foundation Rajshahi participated as special guests. Chief Adviser Enamul Haque, 1971 Gathok Dalal Nirmul Committee, Member Secretary of Rajshahi Conference Preparation Committee, Tamim Siraji, brave freedom fighter and former commander Monirul Islam, Barendra Press Club Senior Vice President Farooq Ahmed, Bangladesh Rajshahi Metropolis Member Secretary Salahuddin, Boalia Thana Nirmul Committee General Secretary Roni Sarkar, International Human Rights Organization Law Support Center Ask Foundation Rajshahi Division General Secretary Saidul Islam etc. In the speech of the chief guest, he said that even in the last 14 years, Pakistan has not taken any action against the perpetrators of the Mumbai blasts. The farce is going on in the name of justice. Rather, the heroes behind the 2008 Mumbai blasts have also been rewarded in Pakistan. Despite the documentary evidence provided by India, the Pakistani government did not punish the Mumbai terrorist attackers except by making some public statements. Various countries of the world, including Bangladesh, have declared zero tolerance against terrorism, but the Pakistan government led by the army has no problem with this. Islamabad's behavior on the Mumbai attack proves that the 26/11 attack in Mumbai was a terrible terrorist attack and murder with the support of the Pakistani government.

It is now clear to the international community that the Mumbai attack was carried out with the help of Pakistan Army and intelligence agency ISI. Therefore, Islamabad is busy protecting the interests of Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) chief Hafiz Saeed and his associates.

Special guest Golam Mostafa James said in his speech that November 26 is one of the worst days in the history of terrorist attacks in the world. On this day in 2008, Pakistani terrorists attacked 12 other places including a five-star hotel in Mumbai, India. The lives of 166 innocent people, including local and foreign nationals, were taken away. The terrorists entered Mumbai by sea from Pakistan. A century has passed since the worst attack in the history of India, but still those involved in that terrible attack have not been brought to justice.

Brave freedom fighter Monirul Islam said that on November 26, 2008, an unprecedented terrorist attack by Pakistan-backed militants turned the Taj Hotel in Mumbai, India and the surrounding area into a battlefield. Where hundreds of citizens of 22 countries including Indians were injured. We have been witnessing since the Liberation War of 1971 how Pakistan has been exporting militancy to various countries of South Asia including Bangladesh and India and carrying out killings, terror and destruction in the name of religion.

In the opening speech of the President, Kamruzzaman said that although the Indian side has provided documentary evidence about the attack, the Pakistani government has not punished the terrorist attackers of Mumbai except by making some public statements.

Student leader Tamim Siraji said - Bangladesh and other countries of the world have declared zero tolerance against terrorism, but the Pakistani government led by the army has no problem with this. Islamabad's behavior on the Mumbai attack proves that the 26/11 attack in Mumbai was a terrible terrorist attack and murder with the support of the Pakistani government.

He said that it is clear to the international community that the Mumbai attack was done with the help of the Pakistan Army and intelligence agency ISI. Therefore, Islamabad is busy protecting the interests of Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) chief Hafiz Saeed and his associates.
