BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir expressed grave concern on Wednesday over the certain individuals who, he said, are attempting to lead the nation into darkness by inciting a division through social media, reports Dhaka Tribune.
“We are deeply worried following some of the events for the last few days. Just imagine the madness stirred up around the issue of religion,” he told a discussion.
“It is unfortunate that some people, who consider themselves the most popular and patriotic, are inciting division within the nation and pushing it towards darkness,” Fakhrul said.
Without naming anyone directly, Fakhrul questioned whether those responsible for sowing division and disunity are true friends or enemies of Bangladesh.
Doctors Association of Bangladesh (DAB) organised the event at the Jatiya Press Club to mark Shaheed Dr Milon Day, commemorating the 34th martyrdom anniversary of Dr Shamsul Alam Khan Milon, who was killed during the 1990s anti-autocratic movement.
