“No one will be spared, no matter what organisation they belong to. Appropriate actions will be taken,” Sheikh Hasina said.
Earlier, the Prime Minister hoisted the national flag upon her arrival at the council venue when the national anthem played and the BCL president and secretary hoisted the organisation’s flag.

AL General Secretary and Road Transport and Bridges Minister Obaidul Quader also spoke on the occasion.
