A group of Awami League central sub-committee leaders and activists on Friday brought out a procession in the capital鈥檚 Dhanmondi-27 area after Jumma prayers and a group of BCL leaders and activists held a protest procession in front of AL president Sheikh Hasina鈥檚 political office in Dhanmondi Friday morning.
A group of BCL leaders and activists also brought out a motorcycle procession in the capital鈥檚 Badda area at midnight past Thursday.
The protesters termed the interim government 鈥榰nconstitutional and illegal鈥�. 聽
More than 25 AL leaders and activists brought out a procession at the Dhanmondi-27 area after jumma prayers demanding the resignation of Professor Muhammad Yunus-led interim government, restoring the Sheikh Hasina government and withdrawal of the ban imposed on the BCL.
The procession began from Rapa Plaza and ended at the same point after parading about 200 metres.
They chanted slogans like 鈥楽heikh Hasinar Sorkar Bar Bar Dorkar鈥�, 鈥楯oy Bangla Joy Bangabandhu鈥� and 鈥極boidho Sorkar Mani Na Manbo Na鈥�.
A former member of the AL central sub-committee on office affairs, Samrat Emran Siraj, told 抖阴精品 that they brought out the procession for a brief time to avoid harassment and arrest by law enforcement agencies.
On Friday morning, more than 10 BCL leaders and activists brought out a procession in front of AL president Hasina鈥檚 political office to press home the same demands.
A group of BCL leaders and activists of its Badda thana unit brought out a motorcycle procession on the 100-feet road in the capital at midnight past Thursday demanding the withdrawal of the ban on BCL.
They alleged that the interim government and anti-liberation forces were filing false cases against Sheikh Hasina and thousands of leaders and activists of the AL and its associate organisations.
The interim government banned the BCL on Wednesday, two and a half months after assuming power on August 8, three days after the fall of AL regime amid a student-mass uprising on August 5.聽
BCL was banned under the Anti-Terrorism Act amid the demand raised by the Student Movement Against Discrimination, the platform that led the July-August Student-People uprising ensuring the fall of the Sheikh Hasina regime.
BCL was reportedly involved in killings, extortions, hall seat business and tender manipulations during Hasina鈥檚 autocratic rule in the past 15 years.
