Musaddiq Ali Ibn Mohammad, leader of the July Unity bloc, accused India of attempting to divide the nation following the July uprising. He said that although Sheikh Hasina fled, her loyalists still hold key positions in the country. Frustrated by these developments, Chief Adviser Dr. Yunus had considered resigning. Musaddiq announced a protest rally at Shahbagh on Sunday, May 25, to resist alleged Indian conspiracies and revive the unity forged during the July uprising. A nationwide campaign will continue until May 30, and he warned that if the “July Declaration” is not issued within 30 working days, the advisory council and political parties will be held accountable.
