Let's build a non-communal, hunger-poverty-free prosperous Golden Bangladesh as dreamt by Father of the Nation through reflecting the glory and ideals of his long-struggling life in our actions; this should be our firm pledge on this National Mourning Day," the premier said in her message on Sunday.At the fateful dawn of August 15 in 1975, a group of proclaimed pro-Pakistani killers, the army officers assassinated the country's "undaunted" leader Bangabandhu along with most of his family members and toppled his three-and-half-year-old government.August 15 remains as a black chapter of the country's history as the vested quarter, by capturing state power, trampled people's long-cherished desire for economic emancipation.President Abdul Hamid and Prime Minister Hasina issued separate messages on the occasion of National Mourning Day and the 47th martyrdom anniversary of Bangabandhu.
