“There are many citizens in Bangladesh. We don’t have to do something just because a small group wants us to,” Mahmud said while speaking to journalists at the ministry on Thursday.
Nagorik Somaj, a platform of different organisations led by Zafrullah Chowdhury, trustee of the Gonoshasthaya Kendra, staged a rally on Wednesday demanding that the act be repealed by Mar 26.
