We want a country governed by rule of  law: Student leaders

The Anti-Discrimination Students' Movement on Wednesday announced to hold 'Shaheedi March' today across the country, in remembrance of the martyrs of the July Revolution on the one month anniversary of the fall of Awami League government.

Coordinators of the student platform made the announcement at a press conference at TSC Auditorium on Dhaka University (DU) campus.

The central martyrdom march will begin from in front of the Raju Sculpture at DU at 3:00pm.

It will parade from Raju Memorial Sculpture through New Market, Dhanmondi, Manik Mia Avenue, Farmgate, Karwan Bazar, Shahbagh, and conclude at the Central Shaheed Minar.

Coordinator Sarjis Alam said, "We believe that now is the time to remember those who opened their arms to embrace bullets. Therefore, we will hold a martyrdom march across the country on the one-month anniversary of the fall of the autocrat Sheikh Hasina."

He invited the families of all martyrs to participate in the event.

"The bloodstains have not yet dried. Our brothers are still suffering from wounds. We request the media to document how our brothers were killed. Many are calling for a victory procession, but as long as a new Bangladesh is not formed and people do not have their rights back , such a victory procession is not possible," he said.

Coordinator Hasnat Abdullah said, "For the past 16 years, the party's constitution has been imposed as the country's constitution. The Awami League has turned into a religion. Everything was being 'Awamized'. Now, to come out of this, everyone must unite."

He, however, said, "There seems to be a tone of division among us. To ensure that fascism never returns, everyone must unite. It is a matter of concern what those who interfere with media freedom before coming to power might do once they are in power. We want media freedom. We want a media that can question those in power."

Coordinator Abu Baker Majumder said, "From September 6th, the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement will start visiting divisional and district cities to organise everyone. We will talk to the public, find out what they want, and also provide some suggestions. We will implement what the people want."

He urged, "Do not take the law into your own hand. The new generation wants a Bangladesh where everyone welcomes that Bangladesh. 

Therefore, you should assist the administration in maintaining law and order. If you find criminals, hand them over to the law enforcement agencies. We want a country governed by the rule of law. Those involved in the July killings will not be spared."
