Sarjis Alam, chief organizer of the northern region for the Nationalist Citizen’s Party (NCP), said that “those who tried to erase the name of Cumilla are themselves erased from the country.” He made the statement during a mourning rally in Cumilla on Wednesday. Alam also paid tribute to fellow revolutionaries including Hasnat Abdullah, Asif Mahmud, Abu Bakr Mojumdar, and Rifat Rashid. Meanwhile, NCP leaders are currently visiting Brahmanbaria and Habiganj as part of their “July March” campaign.
