Commotion in Joypurhat over missing Zia's photo on banner

A commotion and anger arose among BNP leaders and activists as the main banner of the discussion meeting marking National Revolution and Solidarity Day in Joypurhat lacked a photograph of former president Ziaur Rahman. Later, the event began after a separate photo of Ziaur Rahman was affixed to the banner with scotch tape.

Besides, a second round of commotion broke out when a speaker addressed Sheikh Mujibur Rahman as the 'Father of the Nation' and 'Bangabandhu' during the same event. Concluding amidst two phases of disruption, the Deputy Commissioner apologized, and State Minister for Public Administration and Food Abdul Bari ordered an investigation into the incident.
