AL may hamper Mar 12 rally: BNP

BNP standing committee member Dr Khandaker Mosharraf Hossain yesterday cautioned that the ruling Awami League might create problems at the party's March 12 public rally in the city.
This is why they [AL leaders] are making foul comments long ahead of the programme, he said and urged the people from across the country to join the rally.
The BNP leader was addressing a meeting of Sylhet city BNP at a community centre, organised for making the Cholo cholo Dhaka cholo (let's go to Dhaka) programme a success.
Sylhet city BNP president MA Haque chaired the meeting while district unit president M Ilyas Ali and central working committee member Dr Shahriar Hossain Chowdhury, among others, spoke.
Meanwhile, about 10 activists of Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal (JCD) sustained injuries in a clash between two rival factions at the community centre yesterday afternoon.
The incident occurred over grabbing of seats at the venue. The injured took first aid.
