TDS Desk:

Nahid Islam, a coordinator of the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement, has urged the countrymen to keep occupying roads peacefully, despite the fall of Awami League government, to meet all their demands.

In the meantime, he has urged countrymen to prevent the looting of state properties by opportunistic mobs.

He made the remarks during an interview given to Channel 24. Eight other coordinators of the student movement accompanied him during the interview.

“We ourselves have to protect our state assets. Amid the absence of an operational government, none should get the chance to loot these assets,” he said.

Nahid Islam also called for reforming all the discriminatory provisions in the state apparatus. He said the students desire an interim government with representatives from the student community, teaching community, civil society and others.

This interim government would eventually hand over the power to representatives elected by the general people.

The coordinators said they would declare the model of an interim government at the SAARC Fountain near Kawran Bazar in the capital.
