The Khan A Sabur Smriti Sangsad organized a discussion and prayer meeting in Khulna on Sunday to mark the 44th death anniversary of Khan A Sabur, the founding president of the Bangladesh Muslim League and a key figure in the region’s development. The event took place at Sabur Lodge near the Circuit House, where speakers paid tribute to his contributions and recalled his political and developmental legacy.
Former Khulna University treasurer Mazharul Hannan, speaking as chief guest, said that during the 1947 partition, Khulna, Bagerhat, and Satkhira were initially included in India. Khan A Sabur appealed to the Boundary Commission and, through legal efforts, secured Khulna’s inclusion in Pakistan. Hannan also noted Sabur’s role as communications minister in 1962 under Ayub Khan, when he established industries, ports, and projects that transformed the local economy. He criticized attempts to erase Sabur’s name from history.
The meeting was chaired by Sheikh Zahidul Islam, with participation from Muslim League leaders, lawyers, journalists, and educators. The program began with Quran recitation and was conducted by Advocate Akhtar Jahan Ruku and Sirajuddin Sentu.
