Staff Correspondent
As part of the ‘Resistance Week’ programme, several thousand protesters have taken up positions at Dhanmondi 32.
Since early Thursday morning (15 August), a large number of students and civilians have gathered in the areas surrounding Dhanmondi 32, including Rafa Plaza.
On 5 August, a mass uprising led to the fall of Sheikh Hasina's government. As a result, Awami League President Sheikh Hasina fled to India and most of the leaders and activists of the party have gone into hiding from the central to the grassroots level.
Meanwhile, from India, Sheikh Hasina called on the leaders and activists to gather at Dhanmondi 32 on 15 August to observe the day of mourning. Sajeeb Wazed Joy announced this programme on Facebook on behalf of his mother.
