BNP set to stage nationwide demo today

Senior Correspondent: Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) is set to stage demonstration across the country on Monday protesting at what the party said harassing its leaders, including Khaleda Zia and Tarique Rahman, in false cases.

BNP senior joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi announced the programme on Friday morning at a programme at former vice chancellor of Dhaka University professor Emajuddin Ahmed’s residence.

“BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia and senor vice chairman Tarique Rahman are being harassed by implicating in false cases and issuing warrants for their arrest,” Rizvi said.

“Thousands of leaders and activists of BNP are also being harassed by the government in false cases. So, we have decided to register our protest against it across the country, including Dhaka city, on Monday,” the BNP leader added.

Rizvi asked party leaders and activists to make the programme a success with their spontaneous participation.
