Shibir Office Secretary Sibgatullah Sibga told TBS the event will be organised at the Bangladesh-China Friendship Conference Center in Dhaka.
On the Jamaat rally, Zubair said it will be organised to protest the prevailing law and order situation across the country and criminal activities, and to demand justice for the murder of Inqilab Mancha leader Sharif Osman Hadi.
