The "July Alliance" staged a protest in Shahbagh, calling for national unity and resistance against alleged Indian conspiracies in Bangladesh.

BNP leader Habibur Rahman Habib demanded justice for those responsible for the killings in July and urged unity to overthrow the fascist regime.

Jamaat-e-Islami’s Delwar Hossain said, “Despite forming an interim government based on the blood of martyrs, the killers have not been prosecuted.”

Ariful Islam Adib of the NCP claimed that India’s dominance began with the Pilkhana massacre. “Those who align with India will be sent straight across the border by the people,” he warned.
