NAOGAON, Aug 02 (UNB): Leaders and activists of the BNP's Manda upazila unit in Naogaon are currently trying to avoid getting arrested.
Despite their attempts to hide, police have already apprehended 22 BNP leaders and activists from this upazila.
Hundreds of party workers and their allies are fleeing their homes as the authorities intensify their crackdown.
This surge in arrests coincides with the escalating anti-discrimination student movement, affecting Manda along with other areas.
A case under the Explosive Substances Act was filed at Manda thana on July 18 following a complaint by Masud Rana, a former leader of the upazila Chhatra League.
On the same night, police arrested four BNP leaders, including Manda Upazila Jubo Dal leader Shanto Mollah, Swechasebak Dal leader Abdul Wahab, and Sramik Dal leader Yusuf Liton, from their homes.
The following day, police conducted raids across the upazila, leading to further arrests of BNP leaders and activists. As of Friday morning, at least 22 individuals have been detained.
