Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal, the student front of BNP, is getting ready for both the legal and political fight to remove the barriers to holding its much-awaited council.
"We have taken the decision to go to court and challenge the injunction order. We will also continue our political fight to this end," said Chhatra Dal council Appeal Committee chief Shamsuzzaman Dudu.
Addressing reporters at BNP's Naya Paltan central office, Dudu, also a former Chhatra Dal president, said a fresh decision on holding the council of the student front will be taken after the court lifts the injunction order.
"There was significant enthusiasm among the leaders and activists of Chhatra Dal as its council was scheduled to be held today [yesterday], but the court's injunction disappointed them," he said.
Several hundred Chhatra Dal leaders and activists gathered in front of BNP's central office around 12pm, and chanted various slogans demanding BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia's release from jail.
On Thursday, a Dhaka court issued an ad interim injunction on the holding of the council of Chhatra Dal.
The court issued the order as former Chhatra Dal assistant religious affairs secretary Md Aman Ullah Aman filed a case seeking a permanent injunction on the holding of the council.
The lower court also asked the BNP secretary general and nine other party leaders to appear before it and submit a written objection to the injunction in the next seven days.
