An activist of Bangladesh Amar Party (AB Party) was seriously injured in an alleged attack by BNP supporters during an election campaign in Muladi upazila of Barishal. The incident occurred around 12:30 p.m. on Sunday at Lakshmipur village in Ward 4 of Charkalekhan Union. The injured worker, identified as Junaid, was admitted to Muladi Upazila Health Complex in critical condition.

According to eyewitnesses and local sources, AB Party supporters were putting up stickers bearing the eagle symbol for Barrister Asaduzzaman Fuad, the 11-party alliance candidate for Barishal-3 (Muladi–Babuganj) constituency and the party’s central general secretary. Two men, Md. Swadhib and Md. Roni, reportedly objected to the activity and later attacked Junaid with a brick, causing a head injury. Following the attack, local residents took the injured to the hospital.

The incident sparked tension in the area. AB Party leaders condemned the attack and demanded immediate arrest of the perpetrators. Muladi Police Station’s officer-in-charge Fayez Uddin Mridha said legal action would be taken upon receiving a written complaint.
