Dhaka: Prime Minister’s Adviser Mahdi Amin on Sunday emphasized the government’s dedication to implementing the July Charter and delivering justice for the killings that occurred during the July mass uprising. Addressing the first conference on the July Revolution, organized by the July Revolutionary Alliance (JRA) at the BIAM Foundation auditorium in the capital, Amin assured attendees of the government’s commitment.
According to United News of Bangladesh, Mahdi Amin acknowledged the emotions and demands of those present, asserting that the current administration is steadfast in its resolve to execute the July Charter and seek justice for the victims of the July massacre.
