AL leader sacked over factional clash in Mirsarai

Time Digital Report: A local unit committee of Awami League in Jorarganj Union under Mirsarai upazila today sacked Mainuddin Titu in response to the factional clash between two AL group in the upazila yesterday.

"The Jorarganj union committee of AL dismissed Titu from his post as well as the party for his involvement in Sunday's attack," said Jahangir Kabir, president of Mirsarai upazila unit of AL.

"A copy of the order has been sent to the upazila unit committee by the union committee," he told media.

Jahangir Kabir also said the incident not only hampered the festive mood of the Bijoy Mela in the upazila but also tarnished the image of the party.

"The dismissal order against Titu came after grassroots activists demanded for action against him for his involvement in Sunday's attack," said Jahangir.

At least 11 activists of Jubo League and Bangladesh Chhatra League were injured in the factional clash between two groups of ruling party Awami League over the Bijoy Mela in the upazila on Sunday.

Police are yet to detain anyone in this connection. No case was lodged in this regard as well.

Police and local AL sources said Mirsarai upazila Muktijoddha Sangsad had organised 10-day-long Bijoy Mela from December 22. The fair ended on Saturday night.
