The ruling Awami League has announced processions and rallies across the country in protest against the death threat against party chief and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.
AL Office Secretary Biplab Barua issued a press release in this regard on Sunday.
Party General Secretary Obaidul Quader has asked all members of the AL and its affiliated organizations to stage protests in response to the death threat, issued by Rajshahi district unit BNP Convenor Abu Sayeed Chand during a rally.
A video of the BNP leader's speech, given on May 19, went viral on Sunday. He said there will be no 27 points or 10 points. The only demand is to send Sheikh Hasina to the grave. “We will do everything needed to force her to resign, InshaAllah,” Abu Sayeed said.
