Unite against ‘Indian aggression’: Ex-armed forces officers
A group of retired Armed Forces officers, under the banner of the ‘National Unity and Solidarity Council,’ on Saturday urged all to unite what they described as Indian aggression.
Colonel Ahsan Ullah (retd), a freedom fighter and the convener of the organisation, came up with the call while speaking at a rally organised protesting the attack on the Bangladesh Assistant High Commission in Agartala, Tripura.
They brought out a procession from Mohakhali's Raowa (Retired Armed Forces Officers' Welfare Association) Complex that concluded at the same location after marching through Bijoy Sarani area around 10 am.
Expressing deep concern over the attack, the speakers said since the July-August mass uprising Indian media outlets had been spreading propaganda against Bangladesh, reports UNB.
The attack on the Bangladesh Assistant High Commission at Agartala demonstrates India's policy of dominance and aggression and India must understand that the people of Bangladesh will not tolerate any attempt to assert supremacy over the independent country, they said.
The council members also urged the Indian government to make public all agreements signed between the two counties.
Referring to the Vienna Convention, the speakers said that an attack on a mission is equivalent to an attack on the sovereignty of the respective country.
Lieutenant Colonel (retd) Manish Dewan and Colonel Lutful Haque (retd) also addressed the programme.
