Road block in Khagrachhari

Our Correspondent, Khagrachhari
Parbattya Bangali Chhatra Parishad (PBCP) yesterday blocked Dighinala-Bagaichhari road indefinitely protesting alleged attack on Bengali people at Bagaihat and Bagaichhari on January 24. No vehicles plied as hundreds of picketers agitated on several points of the road to make blockade a success. Bagaichhari Upazila Chhatra League President Mohammad Zamir Hossain was assaulted by picketers as he went to Bagaihat at noon to know the situation. Most business centres and schools of Bagaihat and nearby areas remained closed for fear of picketers, sources said. The leaders said, “They will continue agitation till their demands were met”.
