BNP lifts suspension on Shama, Babul's posts

After nearly two and a half months, the BNP has lifted the suspension on the posts of its leader Shama Obaed and Krishak Dal's Shahidul Islam Babul.

The party conveyed its decision on Sunday by issuing a press release, signed by its Assistant Office Secretary Munir Hossain.

Shama was the Organising Secretary of BNP’s Faridpur Division unit, and Shahidul Islam Babul was the General Secretary of Krishak Dal.

On August 21, BNP suspended the posts of Shama Obaed and Shahidul Islam Babul at all levels after a clash between their supporters in Faridpur’s Nagarkanda that left one person dead.

In separate letters to the two leaders on Saturday, the party stated that the suspension of all their posts had been revoked in accordance with the directive of the high command.

However, they were strictly warned to ensure that no violent incident like the one in Nagarkanda occurs again.

The party expressed hope that the two leaders would remain dedicated to the policies, discipline, and responsibilities of the party from now on.
