A message appeared on the digital billboard at Khulna Railway Station on Saturday night (December 14) reading, “Chhatra League will return in a dangerous form, Joy Bangla, Joy Bangabandhu, Sheikh Hasina will return.” The incident occurred at around 8:30 PM. Following the viral spread of a video showing the message, leaders and activists of the anti-discrimination student movement, along with general students, the public, and BNP activists, gathered at the station and surrounded the station master.

During the protest, the enraged crowd attempted to attack Station Master Masud Rana Roni, the Officer-in-Charge of the GRP Police Station, and the DIO. At around 9:30 PM, Aslam, the operator of the station’s digital screen, was handed over to the police.

Minhajul Abedin Sampad, a representative of the anti-discrimination student movement and a student of Khulna University, said that the presence of war criminals like Sheikh Hasina and her allies, who were active in the July movement, proves that they are still at work. He accused them of creating unrest in the country through such provocative actions.

Inspector Shahjahan Ahmed of the Sadar Police Station confirmed that Aslam Hossain Sentu was taken into custody for security reasons. He works for the contractor company Triple E Sign, which operates the digital board. He added that the Railway Police would take legal action in this matter.
