11-party alliance suspends Sylhet long march

The long march program towards Sylhet by the Jamaat-e-Islami-led 11-party alliance, scheduled for November 21, has been suspended. The pre-announced program will not take place on the designated day, though the alliance has not officially announced its cancellation.

AIN Hamidur Rahman Azad, Assistant Secretary General of Jamaat-e-Islami and coordinator of the alliance, stated that there was a plan to conduct the long march by train from Dhaka to Sylhet. However, getting multiple trains at the same time is difficult and requires government cooperation. Alongside political considerations and Armed Forces Day engagements, the program has been temporarily suspended.

Sources also indicated that internal tensions within the alliance played a role in the suspension. Previously, the alliance conducted long marches towards Chattogram, Rangpur, and Khulna.
