Awami League adopts special strategy around Ramadan

The interim government led by former chief advisor Professor Muhammad Yunus has banned the activities of the Awami League, which was ousted from power in August last year, and all its affiliates, affiliates and fraternal organizations. The government has highlighted the reasons taken into consideration behind the ban.

However, despite the ban, Awami League leaders and activists have occasionally carried out various activities, including sudden processions, during the tenure of the previous interim government.

The party has increased its activities around the month of Ramadan. The government has been informed about the matter by the law enforcement agencies. However, no specific direction has been received from the government in this regard yet. The law enforcement forces are now mainly waiting for the government's instructions.

Intelligence sources said that the Awami League has adopted a special plan around Ramadan. Under this plan, the party wants to strengthen party activities. Party offices have been opened in several places in the name of Iftar mahfil or distributing Iftar items among the poor and needy. Various activities are going on from these places. On Wednesday, the activities of the Awami League were noticeable in different parts of the country.

According to the relevant sources, after the ban on the activities of the Awami League, the leaders and activists of political parties in different parts of the country including the capital were vocal against the Awami League. Mainly because of their obstruction, the Awami League could not enter the field. But the leaders and activists of the Awami League got the opportunity to come out in public locally focusing on voting in the last national elections. Some of them worked for the Jamaat alliance, while some worked for the BNP-led alliance. For this reason, the political parties participating in the elections are now not obstructing the activities of the Awami League.

Banners have been hoisted in front of the Narayanganj Awami League district and metropolitan offices. Slogans have been given in the name of the Awami League. The party flag was hoisted at the Kotalipara office in Gopalganj. Iftar items were distributed among the family members of the prisoners at the initiative of the Chittagong Jubo League.
