People involved in the Anti-discrimination Student Movement can form a political party in the future if they want to, but they should do so under a different name, says Sarjis Alam, one of the coordinators of the movement.
“People in the Anti-discrimination Student Movement have the democratic right to form a political party. However, it will create a divide among them if the party is formed at this time, right after the revolution,” he said.
“In future, a political party can be formed if they want to, but under a different name to the Anti-discrimination Student Movement,” he said at a meeting with students and the families of those killed and injured in the movement in Madaripur.
The coordinator warned everyone that many ‘fake coordinators’ had emerged in different districts of the country and urged them to remain alert.
“After Aug 5, many fake coordinators appeared like ‘chameleons.’ They were opportunistic then, remain that way, and will be like that in future as well,” Sarjis said.
”We need to identify them. Otherwise, they will tarnish our image using the identity of a coordinator.”
Sarjis said that ’16 years of oppression’ would not end in 16 months. The mass uprising has destroyed the nest of wrongdoings the Hasina government created, and now the opportunists were trying to create discord among the students, he said.
“Hence, we have to unite. Those students who took part in the movement should remain united. Otherwise, things will go wrong in the future.”
“We must remember that this has been built up for 16 years and only a few of their leaders have fled. It won’t take long for them to return,” Sarjis said.
He also said that any student thinking of becoming a ‘fascist’ in the future or trying to misuse power would be expelled and face legal action.
