If any community in the country believes that its “good fortune lies elsewhere”, Jamaat-e-Islami has no objection to it, says Md Saiful Alam Khan Milon, a member of the party's central executive committee.
Addressing a Pahela Baishakh event of a Jamaat-affiliated organisation called “Deshiya Sangskriti Sangsad” in Dhaka on Tuesday, Md Saiful Alam Khan Milon said: "We must remember that only Allah is the owner of human well-being and misfortune.
Milon, who is also the Dhaka-12 MP, said: "We must remember that only Allah is the steward of human wellbeing and misfortune.
"However, if any community in this country believes their wellbeing and fate lie elsewhere, Jamaat has no objection to it. Jamaat-e-Islami does not want to create any obstacles to that belief."
The organisation also brought out a “Baishakhi procession” and held cultural programmes and fairs as part of the Bengali New Year celebrations, according to a media statement.
Led by Milon and two other Jamaat MPs -- Kamal Hossain of the Dhaka-5 constituency and Nurul Islam Bulbul of the Chapainawabganj-3 parliamentary seat, the procession started from the Jatiya Press Club.
The cultural programmes included folk songs, patriotic songs, poetry recitation, Puthi Path (manuscript readings), and short dramas.
