Jatiya Biplobi Chatra Parishad has submitted a memorandum to the office of the Chief Adviser on Wednesday at 11am, demanding a ban on the Awami League (AL) and issuing a 72-hour ultimatum for action.
Six representatives of the organization visited the Chief Adviser’s office in Jamuna to present their de-mand. The delegation included Anisur Rahman, political head; Md Shafiur Rahman, organisational head; Ghalib Ihsan, assistant member secretary; Abdul Wahed, convener; Fazlur Rahman, member secretary; and Sanowara Khatun, convener (DU).
Convener Abdul Wahed said, “We were given time to visit the Chief Adviser’s office at 11am yesterday. We submitted the memorandum, which was received by Deputy Secretary Shafiul Alam. We have given a 72-hour ultimatum. If we do not receive an assurance within this period, we will continue our sit-in program.”
The submission of the memorandum follows a demonstration on February 25, when the organization attempted to march towards Jamuna. However, police intercepted them at Shahbagh intersection.
Tamim Anwar, a member of the central committee of the Jatiya Biplobi Chatra Parishad, said that their sit-in program at the Raju Sculpture was ongoing. “Our demonstration will continue. If we receive any assurance from the Chief Adviser, we will decide our next steps accordingly,” he said.
