Amid the unfolding situation in Bangladesh, Nahid Islam, a key coordinator of the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement, has called on students and locals to safeguard the nation’s valuables from potential looters.
Speaking to Channel 24 in the evening, Nahid emphasized the importance of maintaining vigilance on the streets. "Our state property should be protected by us, and no one should get a chance to loot, taking advantage of the situation," he urged.
Nahid, alongside eight other coordinators, appealed for peaceful street demonstrations until their objectives are met. He encouraged students and residents to actively obstruct any looting attempts.
The group also demanded the formation of an interim government inclusive of students, teachers, and civil society members. They proposed that this interim government would eventually transfer power to duly elected public representatives.
