Police have arrested 22 persons including a BNP activist for carrying out subversive activities in Sunamganj during the ongoing blockade enforced by the BNP-led 20-party alliance.
Police Super Md Harun-or-Rashid said they were arrested in drives from Tuesday night till Wednesday morning.
He said police would continue the drive in order to control the law and order situation.
The BNP-led 20-party alliance has been observing countrywide roads and waterways blockade for indefinite period since January 5.
Blockade-related violence has killed at least 35 people over the last few weeks.
Hundreds of vehicles, including those belonging to law-enforcers, were burnt and attacked.
The BNP chairperson called the non-stop blockade on January 5 after she was barred from coming out of her Gulshan office.
