The interim government’s Chief Adviser Press Secretary Shafiqul Alam announced via Facebook on Saturday that the Awami League would not be permitted to protest on Sunday.

In the post, Shafiqul Alam wrote: "The Awami League in its current form is a fascist party. There is no way this fascist party will be allowed to hold protests in Bangladesh. Anyone who would try to hold rally, gathering and processions by taking orders from the mass murderer and dictator Sheikh Hasina will face full force of the law enforcing agencies. The Interim Government won't tolerate any violence or any attempt to break law and order situation in the country."

The Awami League had scheduled a protest march for Sunday at 3pm at Shaheed Noor Hossain Square in Dhaka, marking Shaheed Noor Hossain Day.

The program, announced on the party's Facebook page, was planned to demand the removal of undemocratic forces and the restoration of a democratic system.

The statement also encouraged all district and upazila levels nationwide to participate in alignment with the central program.
