National Citizen Party (NCP) Convenor Nahid Islam has alleged that the government removed several “anti-Indian aggression” exhibits from the July Uprising Memorial Museum out of “fear of India”.
The Opposition chief whip raised the allegations while visiting the museum with an NCP delegation on Saturday.
He said, “There was a segment dedicated to border killings, with a list of those killed by the Indian BSF on our border. There was also a sculpture of Felani. Those things have been removed.
“There were some memories and pictures of the anti-Modi movement, which too have been removed.”
Asked why these historical displays have not been preserved, Nahid said: “The BNP may be afraid of India. If it is not afraid, then why should it not remain a part of history?”
Nahid also alleged that the BNP had increased the share of museum exhibits covering its persecution over the past 16 years.
“We have shared our observations with those in charge of the museum. The number of segments in the July Uprising should be increased.
“The narrative should follow the timeline. Especially the roles of private university and madrasa students should be presented separately. Familiar faces have appeared here repeatedly.”
