Rangpur students demonstrate demanding banning of AL

RANGPUR, Nov 10, 2024 (BSS) - The anti-discrimination student movement held a
protest march and rally here today demanding the banning of Awami League or
to face tougher programs and immediate trial of the July 2024 genocide.
 
Hundreds of students of different educational institutions of the city
gathered in the College Road Lalbagh area and participated in the protest
march that passed through the main streets in the city this afternoon.
 
Rangpur representatives of the anti-discrimination student movement including
Imran Ahmed, Nahid Hasan Khandker, Motawakkil Billah Shah Fakir, Yasir
Arafat, Imtiaz Imti, Sajjad Hossain, Ali Hossain, Dr Jamil, among others,
addressed against the Awami conspiracy in the protest rally.
 
The students' representatives complained that the accused killers of Shaheed
Abu Sayeed and other martyrs in the anti-discrimination student-people
movement are hiding under the umbrella of the administration.
 
Because of this, they also alleged that the accused in the cases of student-
crowd killings in the anti-discrimination student-people uprising are still
not being arrested.
 
The students said that Awami League must be banned at the earliest as a
dictatorship party. At the same time, those involved in the July 2024
massacre must be swiftly brought under the law and given exemplary
punishment.
 
They also said that the fact that the accused have not yet been brought under
the law proves that they are under the umbrella of the administration. There
is a strong demand to find the tyrants who are hiding in the administration
and bring them under the law.
 
The protestors warned of a tougher program if the demands are not met.

They said that because of terrorist activities, Chhatra League politics has
been banned. Now, Awami League is to be banned, because their leaders fled
the country through the people's coup, but they did not stop from anti-state
conspiracies.
 
They said the fallen Awami League has become politically bankrupt. Finding no
other alternative ways, Awami League is trying to come back by hanging
pictures of the President-elect of the United States of America Donald Trump.
 

The students' representatives said there is no chance of rehabilitating
fascism, genocide and fascist Sheikh Hasina and her party with Trump or Modi
on the secret path.
 
The students and people of Bengal are awake and will remain awake to stop any
conspiracy until the dreams of Shaheed Abu Sayeed and Shaheed Mugdha are
fulfilled, they said.
