In Osmaninagar upazila of Sylhet, allegations have surfaced that two gazetted July fighters and representatives of opposition alliance parties were deliberately excluded from the upazila administration’s Independence Day celebrations on March 26. The event, organized by the local administration, featured Sylhet-2 MP Tahsina Rushdir Luna as chief guest and was attended by many BNP leaders and government officials, but no representatives from Jamaat-e-Islami or allied parties were invited.
The two excluded July fighters, Enamul Haque (Gazette No. 180) and Ibrahim Ahmad (Gazette No. 336), claimed that since the current UNO Munmun Nahar Asha took office, they have been systematically left out of official events. Local opposition leaders, including those from the National Citizens’ Committee and Khelafat Majlis, accused the administration of politicizing a national day and prioritizing ruling party interests over neutrality.
The UNO did not respond to a request for comment. Reports also indicated that despite administrative instructions, no union parishads in the upazila held Independence Day programs, fueling further local discontent.
