Sylhet Metropolitan Police (SMP) on Tuesday asked Anjumane Hefazat-e-Islam, a Qawmi madrasah-based organisation, to postpone their ijtema — slated for November 17-18 - to avoid any conflict with the main opposition BNP’s Sylhet division rally, scheduled for November 19.

Sudip Das, additional deputy commissioner of the SMP, confirmed the matter to UNB on Tuesday night.

He said they asked the ijtema organisers to fix any date after November 19 as the BNP had announced their divisional mass rally earlier.

Anjuman Hefazat-e-Islam called for a two-day Ijtema marking their 77th anniversary on November 17 and 18 in the city, reports UNB.
