Nahid may leave govt to join new political party

Staff Reporter:
Information Adviser Mohammad Nahid Islam has indicated that he may step down from his gov-ernment position to join a new political party if he feels that working directly with people is more important than serving in the government.
“There are discussions about forming a new political party. If someone wishes to join, it is not pos-sible by retaining a government role,” Nahid said in an interview with a television channel on Sat-urday.
He said the new party is expected to be formed this month and if it happens, all will know it with-in a few days.
Nahid Islam, a coordinator of anti-Discrimination Student Movement and student of Dhaka Uni-versity, took oath as an adviser to the interim government on August 9 after the fall of Hasina govt in a mass upsurge on August 5.
Nahid, who was a student of Dhaka University’s Sociology Department (2016-17 session), was picked along with another adviser, Asif Mahmud, during the first round of curfew slapped by the Hasina government to suppress the quota reform movement.
Later, Detective Branch (DB) members picked him along with some other coordinators while he was undergoing treatment at Gonoshasthaya Nagar Hospital in the capital.
Later, six coordinators of the movement including Nahid were forced to announce the withdrawal of the anti-discrimination student movement programme in a video message when they were un-der DB custody.
But after being released from there, they again announced the programme for a movement and at one stage placed a one-point demand seeking Hasina’s resignation.
The movement then turned into mass upsurge with the participation of people from all walks of life, forcing Hasina to resign and flee the country.
Nahid Islam was a leader of a student organisation called ‘Ganatantrik Chhatra Shakti’. Nahid was the member secretary of the central committee of the organisation.
