‘We can\u2019t understand how they (govt) think no one, except them, can celebrate the Golden Jubilee’<\/p>\n
Expressing wonder over the Dhaka Metropolitan Police\u2019s (DMP\u2019s) instruction on avoiding political programs between March 17 and March 26 on the occasion of the Golden Jubilee of Independence, BNP on Monday demanded the withdrawal of such a restriction.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe acting DMP commissioner\u2019s instruction (on political programmes) has surprised us! Our programmes have no confrontation with the government\u2019s ones,\u201d said BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir.<\/p>\n
Speaking at a press conference at BNP chairperson\u2019s Gulshan office, he said: \u201cWe urge the (DMP) to withdraw its instruction and not to create any obstacle to the Golden Jubilee programs of political parties and social organizations.”<\/p>\n
On Sunday, DMP acting commissioner Monirul Islam urged all political parties and socio-cultural groups to withdraw their scheduled programs between March 17 and March 26 for successful holding of a 10-day celebration of the Golden Jubilee of Bangladesh\u2019s Independence and the birth centenary of Father of the Nation Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.<\/p>\n
He also warned that it will be considered as an \u201canti-state\u201d move if any political party and organization tries to hold any programme during the period ignoring the instruction. Fakhrul sought an explanation from the DMP acting commissioner about how the Golden Jubilee celebration programmes by political parties can be \u201canti-state\u201d ones. \u201cWe can\u2019t understand how they (govt) think no one, except them, can celebrate the Golden Jubilee.”<\/p>\n
He said it is obvious that there would be state programmes to celebrate the event with the presence of the foreign guests. \u201cWe\u2019ll definitely extend cooperation as much as possible in this regard.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
