The Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) has imposed a ban on holding any kind of meeting, procession and rally in the capital from Sunday afternoon to avert any anarchy and confrontation centring the January 5.
The ban will be effective from 5pm until further DMP notice, according to DMP press release issued on Sunday.
The ruling Awami League and BNP were scheduled to hold rallies in the capital marking the January 5.
The BNP is looking to observe January 5 as the “democracy killing day” while the Awami League is set to celebrate “victory day of democracy.”
