He made this prayer on Monday while conducting the munajat at the inaugural sitting of the fourth session of the 13th National Parliament.
In an emotional voice during the munajat, he said, 'O Allah, Lord of the Worlds, You have given us the tawfiq to drive out the fascists. If anyone again makes a malicious attempt to bring back those fascists, may we be able to resist it unitedly. The citizens of the whole state are looking towards this Parliament with deep expectations; may we be able to fulfil them honestly.'
Earlier, at 3:38pm, the session's proceedings began in the main Parliament chamber under the chairmanship of Speaker Major (Retd.) Hafiz Uddin Ahmad, Bir Bikrom.
