Anti-Discrimination Student Movement leaders have rejected Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s call for holding a dialogue.

Asif Mahmud, one of the coordinators of the platform, wrote in a Facebook post: “Many are asking about this, especially journalist friends. We are not willing to sit for any dialogue with this murderer government; hence, discussion with the political party Awami League is out of the question.”
“We have no plans to talk with them. Our demand is very clear; if they have any statement, they can put them through the media in front of the people of the country. The decision of the protesting students and people is our decision. There is no dialogue with bullets and terror,” Asif’s post reads.
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on Saturday said the doors of Ganabhaban are always open to the student protesters for dialogue to resolve the ongoing situation, reports UNB.
“Doors of Ganabhaban are open, whenever the protesters want to talk to resolve the issue I am ready to sit with them,” she said.
