Police obstruct a procession of the Left Democratic Alliance heading towards the Secretariat in front of the National Press Club in the city on Sunday, demanding formation of a neutral poll-time government — Focus Bangla Left Democratic Alliance (LDA) on Sunday announced a two-day programme, including a sit-in and a memorandum to President Abdul Hamid, to press for holding the next polls under a non-party neutral administration, reports UNB.
As part of the programmes, the LDA will hold a 'mass-sit-in' programme across the country on October 23 and submit the memorandum to the President on October 29.
In the capital, the 'mass-sit-in' programme will be observed from 11am to 3pm in front of the National Press Club.
LDA coordinator and Bangladesher Biplobi Workers Party general secretary Saiful Haque announced the programmes from their demonstration near the Secretariat.
He urged the government to come up with a specific announcement by this month to quit power and take steps for forming a non-party election-time government through talks with political parties.
The LDA coordinator threatened that they will announce harsher programmes like blockade if the government does not quit power, dissolve parliament, reconstitute the Election Commission and form the election-time neutral government for holding an acceptable general election.
