Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina will address the nation on Friday (Jan 25).
Her Additional Press Secretary Md Nazrul Islam told Bangla Tribune that the prime minister’s address at 7.30pm will be broadcast simultaneously by Bangladesh Television and Bangladesh Betar.
The private TV channels and radio stations will also broadcast the speech.
This would be Hasina’s first address to the nation after forming the government for the third straight term following the Awami League-led Grand Alliance’s landslide win in 11th parliamentary election on Dec 30 last year.
The Awami League came to power on Dec 29, 2008 after winning the ninth parliamentary election.
On Jan 12, 2014, the Awami League government, led by Prime Minister Hasina, took office for the second consecutive term after winning the 10th national polls held on Jan 5 that year.
