Ban on rally in Rajshahi

Staff Correspondent, Rajshahi
Rajshahi Metropolitan Police (RMP) yesterday prohibited all types of meeting and gathering on Shipaipara Government School and Madrassa premises where Islami Ain Bastabayan Committee called a rally today. Fazlul Haque Amini, the committee's central unit president, was scheduled to address the rally. RMP Commissioner M Obaidullah, in a handout issued yesterday, said the prohibition is imposed following fear of possible law and order breakdown, as Rajshahi city unit of Bangladesh Muktijuddha Sangsad called a meeting at the same place and time. Neither of the organisations can hold any programme at the venue between 12:00am of Thursday and 12:00am of Friday, the period the prohibition will remain in force.
