Protest continues

Different social and political organisations yesterday protested the recent attack on Buddhists community at Ramu in Cox's Bazar, and demanded punishment of the real culprits.
Condemning the attacks, they urged the government to ensure security of the minority communities.
Against the backdrop of the attacks on Buddhists, Jahangirnagar University (JU) arranged a seminar titled “Banglar Jonozati, Banglar Buddhists, Banglar Hindu, Banglar Christians, Banglar Muslim, Amra Sobai Eidesher Shontan” at Zahir Rayhan auditorium.
Addressing the seminar, JU Vice Chancellor Prof Anwar Hossain said the attack was an inhuman and fanatic attempt to foil the communal harmony in the country.
Meanwhile, leaders of Samajik Pratirodh Committee (SPC), a platform of several organisations, in a written statement said the country's people should stand against all types of violence so that communal harmony is not destroyed.
Gonotantrik Bam Morcha, an alliance of leftist parties, and Bangladesh Jubo Maitry also held protest rallies in the capital, and urged the government to take adequate security measures ahead of Durga Puja of the Hindu community.
