BNP on Tuesday claimed that its official website www.bnpbangladesh.com remained “blocked” since last week.
“Blocking of our party’s website is a condemnable matter. The authority should unblock the website immediately,” BNP Standing Committee Member Amir Khasru Mahmud Chowdhury said.
The BNP leader said they have submitted a letter to the Election Commission but it did not initiate any measures in this regard.
The government has already stepped up with tight control on websites in the country in a bid to prevent publicity of unwanted news and propaganda ahead of the December 30 national election.
As part of the move, Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Commission (BTRC) on December 10 blocked 54 of sites.
