BGB members have been deployed in different places across the country to maintain law and order in the context of Sunday's hartal and Saturday’s power outage.
Mohsin Reza, public relations officer of BGB, told the Dhaka Tribune about the BGB deployment.
An unusual power outage has taken over the entire country as the national grid collapsed two times since 11:30am on Saturday.
Power supply was being restored partially across the country from 2:50pm. However, the national grid collapsed again at 4:30pm.
Jamaat-e-Islami has called countrywide hartal for Thursday, Sunday, Monday in protest against the tribunal’s verdict that handed down death penalty to its Ameer Motiur Rahman Nizami for war crimes.
Moreover, the International Crimes Tribunal 2 fixed Sunday for pronouncing judgement in the war crimes case against Jamaat-e-Islami Central Executive Committee member Mir Kashem Ali, also a key financier of the party.
