Bangladesh Diploma Bekar Nurses' Association yesterday threatened to go for fast-unto-death in front of Jatiya Press Club from November 26 if their demand to appoint the unemployed nurses is not met by November 25. Leaders of the association at a rally in front of Central Shaheed Minar demanded appointment of 5,000 unemployed nurses as per the prime minister's announcement, said a press release. As the announcement was not implemented in the last three years, age limits for government job of more than 3000 unemployed nurses have already been crossed, they said.
