\"\"Dhaka: Tomorrow is the 40th homecoming day of Awami League President and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.<\/p>\n

On May 17 in 1981, she returned to the country after a long exile.<\/p>\n

Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was brutally killed along with most of his family members on August 15 in 1975 and his two daughters\u2013 Sheikh Hasina and Sheikh Rehana \u2013\u2013 luckily escaped the brutal assassination as they stayed abroad.<\/p>\n

In a national council session of the Awami League on February 14, 15 and 16 in 1981, Sheikh Hasina was elected as party president in her absence and then she returned to the country on May 17.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have returned to the country not to become a leader of the Awami League, rather to participate in the struggle for freedom by staying beside the people,\u201d said the AL president in a heart touching reception awarded by nearly 1.5 million people at the airport at that time.<\/p>\n

She added: \u201cI want to stay beside you as your sister, as your daughter, and as a worker of Awami League, who believes in the ideals of Bangabandhu.\u201d<\/p>\n

On the occasion of Sheikh Hasina\u2019s homecoming day, various organisations, including the Awami League, observe detailed programmes every year throughout the country, but this year, no formal programme will be observed due to the novel coronavirus situation.<\/p>\n

As part of the programme, AL\u2019s information and research affairs sub-committee will arrange an exhibition on information and news clipping on May 16 and 17which will be held on the premises of Bangabandhu Memorial Museum at Dhanmondi road number 32.<\/article>\n

To mark the day, Dhaka City North unit of AL will arrange a discussion at 23 Bangabandhu Avenue at 11am on May 17 while AL\u2019s Dhaka City South unit will arrange a doa mahfil and discussion at Mahanagar Natyamancha here at 3pm on that day.<\/p>\n
