The mass revolution has brought new opportunities to rebuild the country: Dr. Yunus

The interim government will remain as long as the people want, said the professor of the interim government. Yunus said that the student-led mass revolution has given the interim government a new opportunity to rebuild the country.

On Wednesday (August 28) in the afternoon at the State Guest House Yamuna in Dhaka, France's Ambassador to Bangladesh Mary Masdupui had a courtesy meeting with the Chief Advisor and said these things. Yunus.

Dr. Yunus said the student-led revolution gave the interim government an opportunity to rebuild the country, which had never been done before. It's a big job. But we see it as a big opportunity. If we don't seize the opportunity, it will be a big failure.

Urging people to see the country as part of a 'big family', he said, “Sometimes we disagree too strongly.” But that doesn't mean we are enemies. The government is committed to protecting the rights of every citizen. Let's establish human rights. Our job is to implement the constitution.
