Raushan’s side show at JP rally goes viral

Raushan Ershad, senior co-chairman of Jatiya Party and also leader of the opposition in the parliament, has encouraged her party men by singing songs at a public rally in Dhaka recently.

A video footage of her singing the songs went viral on social media platforms including Facebook.

Jatiya Party held the rally at the historic Suhrawardy Udyan on March 24.

Before HM Ershad, chairman of the party, came to the dais, he held the hand of his wife Raushan Ershad as she requested him to come beside her at the end of her speech.

At that time, Raushan sang two lines of the national march song of Bangladesh “Chol Chol Chol – Urdho Gogone Baje Madol” to motivated her party men.

She also sang the first two lines of her party's anthem -- “Notun Bangladesh gorbo mora, notun kore aaj sopoth nilam [We will build a new Bangladesh, we have taken the oath afresh]” -- holding the hand of Ershad.

Leaders and activists also sang the party's anthem amid clapping and celebrated the cordial moment between Ershad and his wife.
