He remembered with deep respect all who were killed in the anti-discrimination student movement in July-August. He also recalled all the brave soldiers of the armed forces, including Bangladesh Army, who participated in the Great War of Liberation. 

The nation will always remember with respect the self-sacrifice of martyrs of the armed forces, the Chief Adviser said.

He directed the members of the Selection Board to give emphasis on professional competence, leadership qualities, standards of discipline, honesty, trustworthiness and loyalty, and the overall suitability of the officers for their promotion. 

The officers with honesty, integrity and other leadership qualities deserve higher promotion, he said. 

Prof Yunus also directed the Selection Board to select those who have succeeded in providing competent leadership in various activities of military life, rising above their political ideology, for promotion. 

Highlighting the contribution of Bangladesh Army, he said the Army stood by the country's people at the time of crisis and saved the country from an unstable situation by expediting the process of forming an interim government.
