Students from various educational institutions started coming to the Supreme Court premises in a procession from 11 am today. They and the lawyers are also raising various slogans demanding the resignation of the judges, claiming them as gang members.
Hasnat Abdullah, the coordinator of the anti-discrimination student movement, said, “We have seen that evil forces and defeated forces are trying to thwart the freedom bought by the protection of hundreds of martyrs.” We will resist them. That’s why everyone come down to the streets. He said, our Chief Justice of Appellate Division is trying to hold an online queue with other judges. We have seen that Sheikh Hasina’s son Joy said that her mother did not resign. He said that Sheikh Hasina’s government has fallen in the face of student movement.

Coordinator Hasnat Abdullah said that if the judges of the Appellate Division, including Chief Justice Obaidul Hasan, do not resign by 1 pm, the consequences will be like that of Sheikh Hasina. We will surround the residences of the chief justices and force them to resign.
