The BNP has understood its mistake. That is why they expelled the plaintiff of the case Firoz Khan. Those who provoked Firoz Khan must be identified or else the name of the country will be demeaned repeatedly, he added.

Another coordinator Jewel Aich said, “We want to help the government but if the eight-point demand is not realised we will take to the streets.
