Bangladesh Nationalist Party senior joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi on Monday said they would hold their scheduled rally on Tuesday although police is yet to give permission to hold the programme.
At a press briefing at party’s central office, Rizvi said BNP would hold rally in front of party’s central office at Nayapalatan in the city.
He asked the law enforcers to inform their decision about the rally and also said if law enforcers want then BNP can postpone the rally for one day.
‘But we hope police will respond over the matter as soon as possible’, he added.
The BNP is observing the 41st anniversary of November 7 and awaiting for police permission while ruling Awami League leaders was issuing warning that no rally would be allowed in Dhaka.
Several leaders and activists of BNP were arrested in the past two days in the capital, which the BNP dubbed as police’s action to spread fear among party activists ahead of its rally to be addressed by BNP chairperson Khaleda Zia.
The government denied BNP permission to hold rally at Suhrawardy Udyan to mark the day.
The party was yet to get permission to hold the rescheduled rally at Nayapaltan on Tuesday.
