The BNP will bring out a black-flag procession in the capital on Saturday, as a sign of protest against the government’s refusal to the party’s plan for public rally on Thursday.
“The government has frozen our democratic rights though they said would not do it. They did
not give us permission to hold a rally on Thursday in the city. In protest, we shall bring out a black-flag procession in the capital on Saturday,” BNP’s Senior Joint-Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi announced it at a press conference on Wednesday.
He programmed it as a part of the party’s ongoing demonstration against the imprisonment of former Prime Minister Begum Khaleda Zia.
The party earlier announced that it would hold a public rally in the capital on Thursday demanding unconditional release of its chairperson.
Rizvi accused the government of engineering a conspiracy against Khaleda Zia and her party and against the party’s acting Chairman Tarique Rahman who has been living in London for over a decade.
