Friday, 16 June 2023


Nurul Haque Nur, member secretary of Gono Odhikar Parishad, has said that the Awami League government executed some "innocent" leaders of Jamaat-e-Islami on "India's prescription", reports UNB.
"Jamaat is not legally banned. But it is the Awami League that has executed some innocent leaders of Jamaat, in the name of war crimes trial, prescribed by India," Nur said.
Speaking at a Gono Odhikar Parishad rally in front of the National Press Club on Wednesday, he said, "Jamaat has held a rally in Dhaka for the first time in 10 years. Three ministers of Awami League said it was a political decision by the government."
"I believe Jamaat's ideology and its politics will not allow it to do anything that benefits the Awami League. But there is no last word when it comes to politics. We do not know Jamaat's current position. But it is clear from their statements that they will be on the streets," Nur said.
"We need everyone's support to overthrow this government. So, we are with BNP, Jamaat, Jatiya Party, Charmonai …whoever will be on the streets. We are not in favour of keeping this government in power even for a single week," he added.
