Have long known that President Shahabuddin was being marginalised by Yunus regime: Awami League

New Delhi/Dhaka, Dec 11 (UNI) The Awami League said on Thursday that it had long known that President Mohammed Sahabuddin felt humiliated. This came after the president told a foreign media outlet that he planned to resign after the elections and added that Muhammad Yunus had avoiding meetings and regular contact with the constitutional head of state for the past seven months.
Awami League leader and former lawmaker Pankaj Debnath said the party had long understood that President Mohammed Shahabuddin felt marginalized under the Yunus-led interim administration.
“We knew the President was being humiliated,” he told UNI. “It is shameful that all portraits and photographs of the head of state have been removed from Bangladesh’s missions abroad. This regime has already insulted Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib by destroying his statues and his house, undermined the spirit of 1971 — and now this.”
