The 10th spell of a 48-hour countrywide blockade called by the BNP and its allies, demanding the government’s resignation before the next general election started today (December 6).

BNP Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi announced the programme at a virtual press conference on Monday.
 
The blockade will begin at 6:00am tomorrow and end at 6:00am on Friday.

BNP Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi yesterday called upon the country's people and the supporters of BNP and other opposition parties to observe the programme spontaneously to make it a success.

Vehicles of the newspapers or media, ambulances and those transporting oxygen cylinders and medicines will remain out of the purview of the blockade.

Earlier, the BNP and other opposition parties observed blockades in nine phases to press home their demand for the resignation of Awami League government and holding the next election under a non-partisan administration.

They also observed a nationwide dawn-to-dusk hartal in three phases since October 29.
