Supporters of BNP leader Ishraq Hossain gathered again outside Nagar Bhaban demanding he be officially handed over the mayoral duties of Dhaka South City Corporation. Protesters claim that Advisor Asif is conspiring to prevent Ishraq from taking the oath. They announced they will continue their sit-in until the oath is administered. The protest began on the 14th of this month, with a 48-hour pause in between.
