The political alliance July Unity has called for an 'India Out' campaign, accusing India of interference in Bangladesh’s internal affairs and dominance in international cricket. The announcement came on Saturday afternoon during a 'Rally for Bangladesh' gathering at the Central Shaheed Minar in Dhaka, attended by student leaders, political figures, and members of affiliated organizations. The protest also included a march from Shaheed Minar to Shahbagh’s Shaheed Osman Hadi Square.

Speakers at the rally alleged that India provided shelter to those involved in the killing of Shahid Sharif Osman Hadi, influenced Bangladesh’s electoral process, and used its power within the International Cricket Council to sideline Bangladesh from the T20 World Cup. They also criticized India’s trade and water policies, claiming these actions undermined Bangladesh’s sovereignty. Participants demanded international investigation under the United Nations into Hadi’s murder, citing distrust in domestic agencies.

The rally concluded with calls for boycotting Indian influence, supporting the upcoming referendum, and ensuring justice for Osman Hadi. Protesters vowed to resist any foreign interference in Bangladesh’s political and sporting spheres.
