At a discussion in Chuadanga, Hasnat Abdullah, convener of the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement, asserted that the youth cannot be swayed by the allure of power or parliamentary seats. Criticizing the Awami League, he called for justice for victims of political violence, including trials for Sheikh Hasina and others. Abdullah urged political parties to prioritize the people over power, warning that those focused on power often face exile. He also advised the police to avoid political bias and remain neutral.
