BNP asks JCD president to step down
Staff Correspondent
Ruling BNP's high command yesterday asked Shahabuddin Laltu, president of the party's student wing Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal (JCD), to step down.Sources said the BNP high-ups called on Laltu and asked him why he gave statement in favour of a hall unit leader who was involved in criminal activity. The high command criticised Laltu and said his comment in favour of Tanjilur Rahman Tanjil, president of Jahurul Haq Hall of Dhaka University, has tarnished the party's image, sources said quoting one of the top leaders. The BNP leaders are not pleased with top JCD leaders as they have failed to run the front properly, the sources added. When asked, Laltu yesterday declined to make any comment.
