Over 100 leaders from district and upazila levels of the Gaon Adhikar Parishad in Naogaon resigned simultaneously on Friday.

Among the resigning leaders were Akhtarul Islam (Vice President, Naogaon District), Mehedi Hasan (Joint General Secretary), and Abu Rahat Chowdhury (Vice President), along with other organizational members.

They cited long-standing grievances, including neglect of grassroots leaders, the imposition of “pocket committees,” financial transactions in committee formation, and undemocratic behavior by central leaders. Approximately 80% of youth, student, and labor rights members from Naogaon district resigned in solidarity.
