BNP defers Monday’s hartal to Tuesday

Shawdesh Desk:

The Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) has deferred its Monday’s nationwide dawn-to-dusk hartal to Tuesday following the demise of Kuwait emir Sheikh Nawaf al-Ahmad Al-Sabah.

BNP Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi announced the fresh date at a virtual press briefing on Sunday.

On Saturday, the party declared a general strike for Monday, demanding the resignation of the government to pave the way for an election under a non-partisan administration.

The emir of oil-rich Kuwait, Sheikh Nawaf al-Ahmad Al-Sabah, 86, died on Saturday.

To pay respect to him, Bangladesh will observe a one-day state mourning on Monday.
