Some students under the banner of ‘Anti-Fascism Student-People’ have brought out a coffin procession at Dhaka University demanding a ban on political activities of Awami League, Jatiya Party, and other fascist forces.

The procession titled ‘Coffin March of Fascism’ was brought out from the TSC area of the university on Wednesday.

The participants carried a coffin and chanted different anti-fascism slogans.

Chief organiser of the students Bin Yamin Molla, said, “Those who have lost their limbs in the movement will never get them back. The martyrs cannot be brought back. So, why should the Awami League return? Why should the Awami League and their ally Jatiya Party participate in the elections? We have earned this new Bangladesh at the cost of thousands of lives. An opportunity has come, but I see that the leaders of big parties are trying to rehabilitate fascist Awami League. They want to join the election with the Awami League. We, the students and general people will not allow this.”

To maintain the spirit of the movement and in the interest of the country’s development, he urged the advisers to ban of both the Awami League and the Jatiya Party.

Another key organizer Ziaur Rahman Zia said, “Even after 100 days of the fall of fascism, the fascists are still prowling. They are carrying out various activities and joining the advisory council. People including students will again get united to drive them out.”
