She said Kamal actively took part in the country\u2019s Liberation War of 1971 after taking proper training.<\/p>\n

About Sheikh Kamal\u2019s contribution to sports, the prime minister said that the greatest contribution of Kamal in sports was to make arrangement for sports in Dhanmondi and establishing Abahani Club and made it (Abahani) stronger further after the Liberation War.<\/p>\n

Kamal had a great passion for Abahani, the premier said, recalling Sheikh Kamal\u2019s demand for Adidus boots for players of the football team when she went to Germany after his (Kamal\u2019s) marriage in 1975.<\/p>\n

Sheikh Hasina, elder sister of the Sheikh Kamal, said in an emotion-chocked voice that Kamal never used to demand anything for himself.<\/p>\n

The prime minister said that Kamal used to sing songs, play setar and created a musical band titled \u201cSpondon Shilpa Gosthi\u201d through which he tried to reach the local songs to others.<\/p>\n

Kamal had a role in establishing the Dhaka Theatre as well, she added.<\/p>\n

She went on saying, \u201cKamal is no more within us now. But the Abahani and Spondon which he had established are still within us.\u201d<\/p>\n

She said, \u201cKamal was two years junior to me, but he was matured enough in knowledge, wisdom and many other qualities.\u201d<\/p>\n

The premier said, \u201cKamal had great sense of responsibility since his childhood as he helped our mother in household work from childhood.\u201d<\/p>\n
