The “All-Party United Committee” staged a sit-in on Tuesday morning in front of the Bagerhat District Election Office, demanding the restoration of four parliamentary constituencies in the district.
The protest, which ran from 10 am to 1 pm, drew participation from leaders and activists of BNP, Jamaat, and other political groups, as well as people from diverse professions. Speakers stressed that the district’s population, industrial zones, and the importance of Mongla Port justify reinstating four seats.
On Monday, a writ petition was also filed in the High Court seeking the same demand.
