BNP denounces BCL’s attack on quota protestors

BNP on Monday strongly condemned the alleged attack by Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL) on general students protesting the quota system in government jobs at different parts of the country, including on the Dhaka University campus, UNB reports.

“They (students) have been successfully carrying out a movement with their demands. I think those who are agitating have families and relatives, and everyone is waiting to find a just solution,” said party standing committee member Amir Khosru Mahmud Chowdhury.

Talking to reporters after a meeting with the leaders of a faction of Gono Odhikar Parishad, one of the components of the anti-government simultaneous movement, the BNP leader said the government resorted to attacking the students and filing false cases against them instead of finding a solution.

“We strongly condemn and protest against the attack on the anti-quota protestors by the Chhatra League and the false cases filed against them,” he said.

Asked for his reaction to the protestors’ Rajakar slogans, Khosru said the students meant that they had become Rajakars as they sought their rights.

He also said the government was trying to deprive the students of their rights by talking about conspiracy, BNP’s instigation, and branding the protestors as anti-liberation war forces and Rajakars.
