Staff Reporter: The organizers of Bangladesh Day Parade to be held in New York for the first time are suffering from extreme financial crisis. No grand marshal could be found in the last 1 month. The post was auctioned for $50,000. But there was no response. Finally, the Bangladesh Day Parade is being held in New York on Sunday (May 26) without the Grand Marshal.
Bangladesh Day Parade Joint Convener Syed Akikur Rahman Faruq complained that the amount of money collected so far could not be given an accurate account of the amount collected so far in the meeting held at Smart Tech last Wednesday, May 22 World Human Rights Development Organization President and Bangladesh Day Parade Chairperson Shah Shahidul Haque Sayed and General Secretary Abdus Sobhan. Those associated with the Bangladesh Day Parade are not working for the country and expatriates, but for their own interests. The president and general secretary of the organization are working as if to attend almost every day. They have shown expenses of 200 dollars per day for their salary and pocket expenses.
According to their account, 14 social organizations have submitted a participation fee of 200 dollars. The convener gave 19,000 dollars, another 15,000 dollars was collected from other patrons, but no one could give an accurate account when asking for an account, said Faruq. At this time, They have shown expenses of 200 dollars per day for their salary and pocket expenses.
Faruq said that some people got angry with him when he protested about the Grand Marshal. At one point in front of everyone present Rano Newaz, the wife of convenor Shah Newaz raised her hands on him. But no one protested like that. He sought justice for humiliating him.
