Tension erupted between BNP and Jamaat activists during an Independence Day event at Domar High School field in Nilphamari on Thursday morning. The dispute began after the name of Nilphamari-1 constituency MP Maulana Abdus Sattar was not announced as the chief guest. Amid the commotion, the MP left the venue. Jamaat leaders alleged that the event’s host, former BNP upazila organizing secretary Masud Bin Amin Suman, deliberately omitted the MP’s name, leading to verbal clashes where some BNP activists shouted slogans labeling Jamaat members and the MP as anti-liberation.
Masud Bin Amin Suman denied the allegation, stating that the official script provided by the upazila administration did not mention a chief guest. He claimed the MP was respectfully invited to take his seat and that a few troublemakers caused the disturbance. MP Abdus Sattar later told reporters that such national events should be conducted by government officials rather than political figures and urged the administration to ensure smoother arrangements in the future.
Assistant Police Superintendent Niaz Mehdi confirmed that police quickly brought the situation under control after brief disorder.
