Section144 imposed in Sunamganj

The local administration has slapped section 144 in Dharmapasha upazila as two groups of local BNP called separate meetings at the same venue and same time.
The restriction will remain in force from 6am to 6pm on Sunday.

Locals said two groups of BNP — one led by Dr Rafique Chowdhury and the other by incumbent Dharmapasha upazila chairman Abdul Motaleb — called meetings at a cattle market in the upazila headquarters on Sunday ahead of their party’s council.

Later, Dharmapasha UNO Nazmul Haque imposed the ban to avoid any untoward incident and maintain the law and order.
