The mayor of Basurhat municipality of Kompaniganj Upazila Abdul Quader Mirza of Noakhali has been displeased with the party’s involvement in strikes and strikes after shooting at top Awami League leaders. In the end, the Awami League took a tough stance against him. You will be pressured both organizationally and administratively.
At the same time, law enforcement will be strict against Quader Mirza and his followers if they create disturbances in public life in the name of the program in Basurhat. And the angry central leaders of the Awami League are thinking of severe organizational punishment against Quader Mirza if he does not show restraint. This is what the five leaders of the central policy-making level of the Awami League told Kaler Kantha.
According to a source from the Awami League, a decision on Quader Mirza’s activities will be made at a meeting of the party’s executive parliament. The meeting will be called soon.
The police beat Kader Mirza yesterday in the procession. At least 12 of his followers were injured.
On Saturday night, the Awami League of Noakhali district sent a recommendation to the president of the Awami League and the central executive parliament to expel Quader Mirza from the party as a member of the Basurhat Upazila Awami League on charges of being involved in unconstitutional activities. . However, the president of the district Awami League said that the recommendation was withdrawn overnight. The commission’s secretary general declined to comment on the matter.
Many central leaders of the Awami League have told Kaler Kantha that many at the central policy-making level of the party are angry and embarrassed that Quader Mirza has been organizing strikes, rallies, and press conferences against important party leaders for a long time. . Quader Mirza’s dispute with Noakhali Ekramul MP Karim Chowdhury and Feni MP Nizam Hazari has raged for more than a month. This conflict is gradually turning into violence. Although the general secretary of the Awami League, Obaidul Quader, sternly warned his younger brother Quader Mirza about this, the dispute was not resolved.
If you want to meet the member of the Awami League presidium. Abdur Razzak told Kaler Kanth: ‘What is happening is unexpected and unacceptable. Quader Mirza is being misled. What you say is hurting the team. I am a firm believer in freedom of human expression. But if you want to do politics or play a party, you have to follow party discipline. If any of us have a mistake, we have to discuss it within the team. Politicians have to keep up with many things. Not everything can be said all the time. The right time is to wait. The Awami League is a multi-class party. There are different types of people here. This reality must be accepted. If the team does, the team’s decision must be followed.
Muhammad Farooq Khan, another member of the party presidium, told Kaler Kanth: “I don’t know why the noise is happening. If it is for political reasons, we have leaders in charge of the Chittagong division to investigate it. They are sure to be watching. And if it is for the sake of domination, if there is an incident like the deterioration of law and order, then the police will investigate it, I think they are already investigating the matter.
Former Minister Farooq Khan added: “What is happening is not going well for our party. I believe that immediate action should be taken in this regard.
Awami League Deputy General Secretary AFM Bahauddin Nasim told Kaler Kanth: “If the party does, it must abide by the party’s decision and discipline. No one was given the right to speak openly against the party. Who gave you the right to protest against Kader Mirza’s party in the streets? None of the leaders and workers of the Awami League are taking it well.
Ahmed Hossain, organizing secretary of the Awami League in charge of the Chittagong division, declined to comment on the matter.
However, a central leader of the ruling party told Kaler Kanth, on condition of anonymity, that there was no doubt that Quader Mirza was violating organizational discipline. But the accusations he makes against various influential leaders in Noakhali and Feni are not false. That is why the party is in the dilemma of taking action against Quader Mirza.
Despite calling a second strike yesterday and announcing a sit-in in front of the Basurhat police station, the police beat Quader Mirza and his supporters with sticks. Quader Mirza Noakhali Deputy Commissioner Khorshed Alam Khan, Police Superintendent Alamgir Hossain, Companiganj Police Station OC Zahidul Haque Rony, Inspector (Investigation) Rabiul Haque retired, MP for Noakhali Ekramul Karim Chowdhury, MP for Companiganj Nizam Hazarigan former chairman of Feni Nizam Hazarigan Upazila Rony. The leader of the Charkankara Awami League, Fakhrul Islam Sabuj, went on strike to demand the expulsion of the party.
At around 8:30 am, his supporters led by Quader Mirza held a procession in Basurhat in support of the strike. The procession went from Basurhat Rupali Chattar to the police station. At that moment, Quader Mirza had an argument with the policemen standing in front of the police station. At one point, he was leading a procession when police chased him from behind and beat him with sticks. Although the procession dispersed at that time, Kader Mirza sat on the road for about half an hour. Later, the Awami League and his relatives took him to the municipality office.

Companiganj Police Station OC Mir Jahedul Haque told reporters that in the morning, his followers, led by Quader Mirza, attacked the police station with sticks. At that time, Kader Mirza addressed the senior officers in front of the police station with indecent comments and aggressive behavior. At one point, when he tried to enter the police station with his followers, the police pursued and dispersed them.
After being beaten by the police in the procession, Abdul Quader Mirza held a press conference at 11 am at Rupali Chattar in Basurhat Township. He alleged that at least 20 people were injured in the attack and shot at his followers in Chaprashirhat in upazila on Friday, led by former upazila president Mizanur Rahman Badal. Seven of them were shot. He accused Noakhali-4 MP Ekramul Karim Chowdhury, Feni MP Nizam Hazari and Mizanur Rahman Badal of being involved in the incident and demanded exemplary punishment.
Quader Mirza’s opponent, Mizanur Rahman Badal, former president of Companiganj Upazila, held a press conference at the head of Peshkar Hat Road at 1 pm. In a written statement, he said: “I demand the permanent expulsion of Abdul Quader Mirza from the party for violating organizational discipline by making false and indecent remarks against Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, the Secretary General of the Awami League Obaidul Quader and the central leaders and local Awami League. “” Abdul Quader Mirza must be arrested immediately and sent to a high-quality mental hospital for treatment, “he added.
Withdrawal after recommending expulsion
The Awami League of Noakhali district said in a press release that a recommendation was sent to the central executive parliament of the Awami League to expel Abdul Quader Mirza, an executive member of the Kompaniganj Upazila Awami League, from the party.
“For several weeks now, the executive committee member of the Kompaniganj League Upazila Awami and the mayor of Basurhat municipality, Abdul Quader Mirza, has been inflicting serious injuries on party leaders and activists,” the press release said. He has made false, indecent and offensive statements about the leaders of the Central Committee of the Bangladesh Awami League and the Noakhali District Awami League. Social media went live on Facebook and made indecent comments against the organization and threatened leaders and workers. Abdul Quader Mirza was exonerated from all activities of the organization for these charges.
However, the recommendation was later withdrawn, said Awami League district president AHM Khairul Anam Chowdhury. “I withdrew it two hours after the press release,” he told Kaler Kantha. Since the president of the Awami League, Sheikh Hasina, is already aware of the matter, we will be awaiting her decision. The decision to expel Quader Mirza also had to be reversed to maintain peace in the area.
Although the press release was signed by Secretary General Mohammad Ekramul Karim Chowdhury with the president, he did not want to comment on the withdrawal.
