Ganajagaran Mancha has started its second road march towards Thakurgaon on Friday morning to protest the recent atrocities against members of the local Hindu community, centring their participation on the 10th parliamentary elections.
The team consisted of 410 Ganajagaran members.
Blogger Badhon, one of the activists of the mancha, told the Dhaka Tribune that the march started around 10am.
Although the 3-day road march was scheduled to begin from 16th January, the programme was later deferred for a day due to unavoidable circumstances.
The new date for the second road march was announced by Imran H Sarkar, convener of Ganajagaran Mancha, at a press conference in front of the National Museum, now known as Projonmo Chattar, at the capital’s Shahbagh area on Thursday.
