The upazila unit Awami League leaders, including Mashiur Rahman Tareque, Kamal Hossain, Riton Prodhan, Aminul Haque Khakan, local Chhatra League leader Ashiqul Islam, among others, took part in the procession.
While addressing a street side rally, the Awami League leaders said that the BNP-Jamaat men are engaged in carrying out clandestine attacks to create an anarchical situation in the country in the name of a blockade programme.
The vested quarter is hatching a plot to create disturbances on the way of holding the 12th parliamentary election in a free, fair and peaceful manner, they said.
Awami League and Chhatra League men will take to the street to pay a befitting reply to the BNP-Jamaat nexus, they said.
BNP and its like-minded political parties including Jamaat-e-Islami enforced nationwide blockade programme in protest against the announcement of the election schedule deeming it one-sided.
