Leaders of the ruling Awami League-led 14-party alliance yesterday urged the country's people to resist BNP-Jamaat's hartals and rise against war criminals.
Lambasting BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia for calling hartal for Tuesday, they said it has proved that she is against the trial of war criminals.
The comments came from different protest rallies arranged by the alliance at different points in the capital yesterday.
AL Joint General Secretary Mahabub-Ul-Alam Hanif said attacks on law enforcers should not be a political programme, it is undoubtedly terrorism.
Industries Minister Dilip Barua said the opposition chief is trying to save the war criminals, not democracy.
At another rally at Motijheel, Workers Party President Rashed Khan said the opposition leader is pushing the country toward mayhem.
