Thousands of students gathered near the Raju Memorial, from where these students marched towards the secretariat. Seeing the huge crowd of students, the members of the Ansar Group initially retreated but later started chasing the students with sticks. During this, there was heavy stone pelting from both sides and violent clashes took place. Many people from both sides have been injured in the violence between the members of the Ansar Group and the students. The Ansar members demand that their jobs be made permanent. At the same time, the students allege that the Ansar Group is working as an agent of former Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.

Now it is important to know how the violence spread. In fact, a student leader Hasnat Abdullah, imprisoned in the Secretariat, wrote on social media that, “Everyone come to Raju Smarak. The dictatorial forces are trying to make a comeback through Ansar Force. Even after the demands were met, they have kept us locked in the Secretariat.” All this is happening under the supervision of former Shariatpur MP Inamul Haq Shamim. His elder brother was the DG of Ansar and these Ansar members were recruited by his brother. Only after this message was circulated, the anger of the students flared up and they announced a march to confront the members of the Ansar group. Aminul Haq is the elder brother of Inamul Haq Shamim, who was the Deputy Minister of Water Resources in Sheikh Hasina’s government.
