The Dhaka Times Desk After the 'Smoking Controversy', Social Welfare Minister Syed Mohsin Ali has landed in another controversy. He said in the parliament that Awami League is responsible for the rise of former army ruler Ziaur Rahman.
Social Welfare Minister Syed Mohsin Ali, while discussing the President's speech-related vote of thanks in the National Parliament on Wednesday, said that the title should have been given to the Chhatra League during the Liberation War. Because they organized the nation, led the entire nation to war. We fought, and the army took the title of 'Bir Uttam' and 'Bir Pratik'. That is why Ziaur Rahman has risen.
Syed Mohsin Ali also said, 'The then leaders of Awami League are responsible for the rise of Ziaur Rahman. Bangabandhu's mouth was spread about red horse. They are here too. I came to Parliament with chest pain.'
The time limit for Mohsin Ali's speech in Parliament was extended two times. At the end of the last round, Deputy Speaker Fazle Rabbi Mia said, you continue. At the end of the discussion on the President's speech, Syed Mohsin gave this speech in the parliament. Later the Deputy Speaker adjourned the Parliament.
It is to be noted that Social Welfare Minister Syed Mohsin Ali sparked controversy by openly 'smoking' in a public meeting after taking over as minister. Later, however, he repented and asked for forgiveness.
