Deposed prime minister Sheikh Hasina’s son Sajeeb Wazed Joy criticised the interim government as the Dhaka Metropolitan Police imposed a ban on all kinds of meeting, rally, procession and protest near the secretariat and the chief adviser’s residence Jamuna from today.
‘Yet within two weeks this interim administration has had to ban all rallies there. It’s easy to have no responsibility and criticize. It’s a very different thing to be in power and govern,’ Joy, now staying abroad, wrote in his verified Facebook page on Monday.
‘Our intellectuals criticised our AL government for banning protests around the Secretariat,’ he added.
The DMP move came hours after agitating Ansar member clashed with students in front of the secretariat leaving more than 40 injured while advisers to the interim government and officials were confined in the country’s administrative hubs more than 10 hours.
At least 34 students and six Ansar members were injured in the clash.
Students alleged that defeated fascist Awami League forces were instigating Ansar members to confine the secretariat and create an unstable situation in the country.
