BNP clash with Awami League in Hazaribagh

A clash broke out between Awami League and BNP leaders in front of Shikdar Medical in Hazaribagh of the capital.

The incident took place on Monday (September 26) around 2:55pm. Police have been deployed at the spot to control the situation.

According to locals, the followers of local MP Shafiul Islam Mohiuddin took a stand at the Tally office intersection in Hazaribagh to resist the BNP rally.

Meanwhile, during the BNP's rally in front of Hazaribag Shikdar Medical College, AL supporters chased BNP leaders and activists. 

BNP was supposed to hold a rally in front of Bangladesh Medical in Dhanmondi of the capital as per the pre-arranged program. But Dhanmondi Thana Awami League took up the program at the same place. Keeping in mind that there may be a clash if the two groups face each other, the police asked both the groups not to hold any program there.

People from both sides are chasing each other and there is panic in the area. Due to the conflict, people are running amok. Shops have been closed by traders.
