The NCP has strongly condemned the attack on its Joint Chief Coordinator Abdul Hannan Masud and other activists by BNP members in Hatia. In a statement, the party highlighted that BNP itself had long suffered similar oppression under the fallen fascist Awami League regime. The NCP stressed that it does not want to see a repetition of such political violence after the recent regime change. The party demanded that law enforcement identify and arrest all attackers within 24 hours and urged BNP to take organizational action against those involved.
