BNP will observe a seven-hour token hunger strike at Mohanagar Natya Mancha in the city today (Monday) protesting the Supreme Court order upholding its stay on bail granted by the High Court to Khaleda Zia in a murder case filed in Cumilla, reports UNB.
Besides, the similar programme will be held in all district towns across the country the same day and same time, said party senior joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi on Sunday.
Speaking at a press conference at the party's Nayapaltan central office, he said police and Dhaka South City Corporation authorities gave their party verbal permission to hold the token hunger strike at the Mohanagar Natya Mancha.
"We hope we'll get necessary documents and papers in this regard at the right time," Rizvi added.
