- BDL President Visits Chicago : No. 6
ECONOMIC COUNSELLOR AT THE PAKISTAN EMBASSY RESIGNS Mr. A.M.A. Muhit a Senior officer of the Civil Service of Pakistan and the Economic Counsellor at the Pakistan Embassy in Washington has formally resigned his post and severed all connections with the Government of Pakistan. In a letter to the President of Pakistan dated July 21, Mr. Muhit gave reasons for his resignation together with a total indictment of the Yahya regime. In his letter, Mr. Muhit questioned the legitimacy of the Yahya government, assailed it for its colonial ambition, savagery and utter lack of humanitarian concern. It may be recalled that Mr. Muhit was awarded a Tamgha (title) for his meritorious services to the Government of Pakistan. His last home post was Joint Secretary, Natural Resources Division, Government of Pakistan. We congratulate Mr. Muhit for his bold decision. DOL PRESIDENT WISITS SAN FRANCISCO AND HOUSTON The President of the BDL visited San Francisco on July 18 to meet with the representatives of Bangladesh groups on the West Coast. A meeting was held on that occasion with representatives from the Bay area and the Los Angeles group. The meeting named a member from the Bay area to the Board of Directors of the BDL. The Los Angeles group will also select one person to the Board of Directors after their next general meeting. The BDL President visited Houston, Texas on July 21" and met with the representatives of the South-West zone of Bangladesh Defense League. Among the things the group suggested was efforts should be made to merge all the three newsletters now being published in North America and have only one central Newsletter. (We welcome the idea. We will get in touch with the other two groups concerned: Editor Bangladesh Newsletter).
