BNP on Saturday blamed the Awami League-led government for pushing the country towards `anarchy`.
“Today, [the government has made] democracy bloody, chained human rights… dragged the Constitution to the court,” party`s Standing Committee member Tariqul Islam said.
“We`d like to appeal to the government not to push the country towards anarchy into a dark abyss. We`d want it to work for solution by taking measures to restore a non-partisan government,” Islam said, while addressing party supporters in front of the BNP`s central office in Dhaka.
The BNP`s volunteer front has organised a procession on Saturday, demanding release of BNP`s Acting Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir and protesting against detentions of the party`s Joint Secretary Ruhul Kabir Rizvi and Acting Editor of Bengali-language daily Amar Desh, Mahmudur Rahman.
The procession paraded through the city`s Kakrail, Shantinagar, Malibagh areas and ended up at Mouchak.
Islam said the government will not succeed in suppressing the anti-government protests by detaining opposition leaders and by framing their activists in `false cases`.
He alleged the government had framed 25,000 BNP in such `false cases`. Another 156 activists, including Organising Secretary Ilias Ali, had been “forcefully picked up”.
