Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) Commissioner Khandaker Golam Faruq said action will be taken against BNP as per the country’s existing law if they hold their rally in Nayapaltan on December 10, reports UNB.
“BNP sought permission to hold their December 10 rally at Nayapaltan but we provided permission for Suhrawardy Udyan,” he said while talking to the news agency.
Khandaker Golam Faruq said as an alternative to Suhrawardy Udyan, the field in Pallabi, Kalshi and Ijtema ground can be the rally venue.
Earlier on November 29, DMP permitted BNP to hold its rally at Suhrawardy Udyan in Dhaka on December 10 on 26 conditions.
A notification was issued in this regard from the DMP headquarters, signed by Deputy Police Commissioner (Headquarters and Admin) Abdul Momen, on behalf of the DMP commissioner.
On Sunday afternoon, a five-member delegation of BNP met DMP Commissioner Khandker Golam Faruq and urged him to either allow their party to have the programme in front of their Nayapaltan central office or any venue other than Suhrawardy Udyan.
