The ruling BNP will stage demonstration across the country tomorrow to protest "derogatory remarks" made by Awami League Chief Sheikh Hasina against Prime Minister Khaleda Zia in parliament on Monday.

The demonstration is also aimed to protest against what it said opposition-sponsored violence, anarchy, attack on High Court premises and other destructive activities across the country.

As part of the demonstration programme, BNP will hold rally and bring out procession in all upazila and district headquarters in the afternoon.

In Dhaka, the BNP will organise a rally at Muktangon at 4:00pm.

BNP Secretary General and LGRD and Cooperatives Minister Abdul Mannan Bhuiyan, in a statement yesterday, asked leaders, activists and supporters of BNP and its front organisations to make the programme a complete success.
