Thousands of Jamaat-e-Islami supporters turned Suhrawardy Udyan into a sea of people as the party held its national rally. The event began at 9:40 AM with a recitation from the Holy Qur’an, followed by a cultural segment.

Senior leaders started arriving on stage from early morning. According to Organizing Secretary Mia Golam Parwar, key national leaders will begin delivering speeches from 2:00 PM. Around 6,000 volunteers are working to manage the crowd and maintain order. Jamaat supporters from across the country arrived in processions, many dressed in attire featuring the party’s symbol, the balance scale, while occupying areas within and around the venue.
