Jatiya Nagorik Committee and members of the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement have demanded a ban on the Awami League following the death of 20-year-old Abul Kashem, who sustained severe injuries during an attack in Gazipur.

During a rally held at the Central Shaheed Minar in Dhaka, after the Namaz-e-Janaza of Abul Kashem at 9 pm, protesters demanded banning Awami League.

Speakers at the rally vowed that the students and people of Bangladesh would not rest until the punishment and banning of Sheikh Hasina and the Awami League were achieved.

They also declared that Awami League would have no place in Bangladesh.

Coordinator Rifat Rashid said, "The Awami League has repeatedly proven to be a terrorist organization. Today, Kashem has become a martyr. If we do not ban the Awami League, the line of dead bodies will continue to grow. The people of Bangladesh have only one choice: either the interim government bans them, or the public will take to the streets to do so."

Hasib Al Islam added, "No politics based on Awami ideology will survive in this land.”

Abdul Hannan Masud said, "Six months after the uprising, we are still holding coffin processions. Awami League's attacks continue to kill our brothers. What is the interim government doing?"

Masud also emphasized, "On August 5, people of this country ousted the Awami League. They must be banned legally without delay. Delhi-backed, India-oriented politics will not be allowed in this country."

He urged intellectuals and political parties, saying, "Do not stand in our way. The youth are against Awami League politics, and you must also stand against the Awami League."
