Jatiya Party has called on the government to accept the 9-point demand of the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement'.
Jatiya Party (JP) General Secretary Mujibul Haque Chunnu made the call in a press release and said, "From the beginning of the ongoing student's anti-discrimination movement Jatiya Party has given full support and called on the government to accept their demands."
He said, "Jatiya Party Chairman Ghulam Mohammad Quader spoke in detail in the last budget session of Jatiya Sangsad in favour of quota reform and urged the government to accept the quota reform proposal."
"But at the beginning of the movement the government did not accept the students' demand rather suppressed the students by force.
As a result 270 unarmed students died and more than 10,000 were injured by the law enforcement agencies and Awami League's front organizations" said Mujibul Haque.
He said, "The police shot and killed the students in public and accused other students for the killing. The coordinators leading the movement were taken from their houses and left on the streets after inhuman torture."
"Six coordinators were illegally detained in the DB office from hospitals in the name of safe custody. Which is not acceptable by any law,' Mujibul Haque said.
