Leaders of Left Democratic Alliance on Monday at a protest rally in Dhaka city condemned the interim government saying that it had failed to control mob culture in their more than one year rule.

LDA, a combine of six political parties, organised the rally in front of the National Press Club where its coordinator and also general secretary of the Communist Party of Bangladesh Ruhin Hossain Prince chaired.


The CPB leader said that the interim government headed by Professor Muhammad Yunus had failed to fulfil people’s aspirations borne by the student-led mass uprising and at the same time it miserably failed to stop the mob culture.

He called on the government to organise the next general elections in free, fair and credible manner in February.

Socialist Party of Bangladesh general secretary Bazlur Rashid Firoz warned that the country would plunge into serious crisis if the national polls were not held in February.

Democratic Revolutionary Party general secretary Mushrefa Mishu criticised the interim government, saying that it had failed to work for the workers’ welfare.

She called on the government to refrain from leasing out operations of Chattogram Port to a foreign company.

Socialist Party of Bangladesh (Marxist) coordinator Masud Rana, Revolutionary Communist League central leader Abdus Satter, Samajtantrik Party executive president Abdul Ali and CPB joint general secretary Mihir Ghosh also spoke at the rally.

Later on, a protest procession was held that marched through the city roads.
