Jatiya Party protests against visit of Sarjis in Rangpur

The Jatiya Party (JaPa) held a protest rally in Rangpur city on Saturday noon in protest against the visit of Sarjis Alam, a key coordinator of the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement.

The party members brought out a procession from the party's office in the city's Central Road area at noon. Carrying bamboo sticks, they marched through the main roads and converged on Payra Square for the rally.

At the rally, JaPa Co-Chairman and former Rangpur city mayor Md Mostafizur Rahman Mostafa said, “Sarjis Alam is afraid as he has come in Rangpur with IGP. We will obstruct him to hold any rally in Rangpur”.

He claimed that certain individuals associated with the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement were engaged in hatching conspiracies against JaPa.

A meeting was scheduled between Hasnat, Sarjis, and students at Begum Rokeya University. However, while Sarjis attended as scheduled, Hasnat did not come to Rangpur. Sarjis also visited Abu Sayeed’s grave.
