BHUTTO'S TELEGRAM
In a telegram sent to Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman on March 11, 1971, Bhutto expressed his willingness to come to Dhaka immediately to work out a solution so that the National Assembly session could be held soon. He urged Bangabandhu to work together to build a "new system" where there would be no discrimination among provinces as well as among citizens.
KEEP ECONOMY IN FULL GEAR
Tajuddin Ahmad, general secretary of the Awami League, in a statement today said the people's movement had attained unprecedent heights. It had been made possible because every person in his own sphere had taken it as his sacred duty to implement, in spirit and in substance, all the directives of Bangabandhu issued in the name of the people of "Bangladesh", he added. He urged people to be prepared to foil the conspiracy of the vested interests and the anti-people forces to destroy the economy of "Bangladesh". The statement called upon people engaged in various economic activities to follow rigorous discipline in every respect for the victory of the people's cause.
