The lawyers said that ISKCON, a cohort    of the ousted Awami League government, wants to create anarchy throughout the country and maintain its subservience to India. This ISKCON is a Hindu extremist organization.
 
“The ISKCON terrorists attacked the general public and lawyers in the Chattogram court, in that attack, they brutally killed lawyer Saiful Islam Alif in planned way chanting ‘Jai Shri Ram’ slogans.
 
They said terrorists from Awami League's Chhatra League and Jubo League also participated in this attack vandalizing and causing anarchy in the court premises.
 
The speakers told  Hindus to avoid ISKCON and move forward to build a prosperous Bangladesh by maintaining communal harmony. Like in the past, Hindus are still safe in this country and will remain so in future.

But it is being noticed that after the fall of the ousted fascist Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, anti-Bangladesh propaganda and various anti-state conspiracies are on.
 
As part of this, they have continued to destabilize the country through ISKCON. The lawyers want to move forward the country with brotherhood and communal harmony.
 
Terming the ISKCON as a radical and militant they demanded ban on the    organization as well as ensuring a speedy trial for the death of lawyer Saiful Islam Alif.
