Senior Correspondent: BNP deferred its Sunday's (March 11) rally at Suhrawardy Udyan to Monday (March 12).

BNP senior joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi made the announcement at a press briefing in party’s central office in Nayapaltan on Friday (March 2).

He said, "We have sent letter to Police Commissioner and chief engineer of Public Works Department in this regard. Earlier, we were not allowed to hold the programme due to Ekushe February and Book Fair. That's why we again informed police about our programme."

"We hope that we will get permission for holding the rally," he added.

Earlier on February 22, BNP announced to hold a public rally at Suhrawardy Udyan in Dhaka, demanding unconditional release of party chairperson Khaleda Zia. But, the authority concerned did not allow the party showing some reasons.
