Opposition Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) will be given permission to organise their grand rally in front of the party office at Naya Paltan in the capital on Saturday.
Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan informed Prothom Alo of this decision on Friday evening.
He further said the Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP) commissioner will speak about this in detail.
BNP on 18 October announced the grand rally, to be organised on 28 October, as part of its ongoing movement seeking resignation of the government before the upcoming 12th parliamentary elections.
Following the announcement of BNP, governing Bangladesh Awami League (AL) also announced a ‘peace and development’ rally at the south gate of Baitul Mukarram National Mosque on the same day.
