Uprising Proclamation: Student leaders in meeting after govt's move
Soon after the interim government announced that it would prepare a declaration of the July uprising based on national consensus, Student leaders convened an emergency meeting to decide on their next move.
The meeting, which started at 10:00pm, is being held at the office of the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement office in the capital's Bangla Motor area.
"We will announce our decision after the meeting. The meeting is ongoing," Hasnat Abdullah, convener of the platform told reporters.
The meeting was ongoing till filing this report at 12:40am.
On Sunday (December 29), the student movement announced in a press conference that they would unveil the "July Revolution Proclamation" at the Dhaka Central Shaheed Minar on Tuesday afternoon (December 31).
Leaders of the organisation mentioned two key points in the manifesto -- the cancellation of the 1972 constitution, which they dubbed as "Mujibist Constitution" and declaring the "Nazi-like Awami League" irrelevant in Bangladesh.
