Terming Bangladesh Awami League a "fascist" party, Chief Adviser's Press Secretary Shafiqul Alam on Saturday said the interim government will not tolerate any violence or any attempt to break the public order in the country.

"The Awami League in its current form is a fascist party. There is no way this fascist party will be allowed to hold protests in Bangladesh," he said.

The Press Secretary said the party has no chance to protest in Bangladesh.

If anyone tries to hold meetings, gatherings and processions on the orders of mass murderer and dictator Sheikh Hasina, the law and order forces will deal with it strictly, Alam said in a post from his verified Facebook account.

From its verified Facebook post, Bangladesh Awami League urged its activists to come to Shaheed Noor Hossain Chatter - Zero Point, Gulistan, on November 10, and protest against what they call "misrule”.

"Our protest is against the deprivation of the rights of the people of the country; Our protest is against the rise of fundamentalist forces; our protest is against the conspiracy to disrupt the lives of the common people," reads the Facebook post.

On November 10, 1987, Noor Hossain, a leader of Awami Jubo League, was killed in police firing while protesting against the then autocratic rule of Gen HM Ershad at the capital's zero point near Gulistan.
