The event comes amid claims that Hasina has referred to as for “armed resistance” in opposition to the Muhammad Yunus-led interim govt.
Commenting on the alliance with Jamaat, senior BNP chief Mirza Abbas stated Monday, “We should search unity (with Jamaat) in order that we are able to rebuild this nation…” The decision for a united anti-Awami entrance comes even because it was broadly believed that the 2 events would enter the subsequent electoral fray individually. Jamaat is an outdated BNP ally. BNP claims that although Hasina has fled to India, her associates stay within the nation. “…if Jamaat & BNP work collectively, Awami League won’t be able to stage a comeback,” Abbas stated.
On Sunday, Awami League hinted that it might start a avenue agitation in opposition to the Yunus govt. “Awami League, along with the folks of Bangladesh, will take to the streets…,” Hasina’s social gathering introduced on its verified Fb web page. “We’re planning to exhibit and resume our political actions,” Voice of America quoted Awami League organising secretary as saying.
