"We see images of unrest and wars in different parts of the world on television and read on the news pages. There has been peace in our country for the last 15 years; the country is moving forward; it has been possible due to the leadership of Sheikh Hasina, daughter of Bangabandhu,” Arafat stated.
At the same time, Arafat said, "We have to remain alert about those who hurl petrol bombs on people and vehicles and even burn people to death by torching trains to destroy the peace of the people.”

That is, if you count the remaining 75 percent, the vote was much higher than the average of 42 percent across the country.”
Arafat thanked the people of his constituency and sought their blessings for performing their duties smoothly.
