The Bangladesh Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal (BJCD) has announced a strong stance against groups accused of inciting mob violence under the guise of religion. Speaking at a rally at Dhaka University, BJCD central president Rakibul Islam Rakib warned that the organization will actively resist attempts to exploit religious sentiment to destabilize the nation. The protest, organized to demand justice for recent mob killings, concluded with a call for unity and social harmony.

Rakibul criticized what he described as a coordinated campaign by certain factions to spread hatred online and fuel unrest since early August. He reaffirmed BJCD’s commitment to democratic principles, emphasizing patience and restraint in confronting violence. Dhaka University BJCD president Ganesh Chandra Roy echoed the demand for impartial investigations and exemplary punishment for those responsible.

The rally followed recent incidents in Mymensingh and Lakshmipur, where a garment worker and a child were killed in alleged mob attacks. The student group urged the government to ensure swift justice and to prevent further religiously motivated violence.
