Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami has strongly condemned and expressed concern over the cocktail attack on the rally of the National Citizens Party (NCP) in Savar. The party has also demanded an impartial investigation, swift arrest of those involved, and exemplary punishment.

Mia Golam Parwar alleged that the failure to ensure adequate security at a rally organized in the presence of the opposition Chief Whip indicates the administration's failure. He also called for uncovering the reasons behind the power outage and the entire incident.

He said in a democratic state, the right of all political parties to hold peaceful programs must be ensured. Political violence, bombings, and terrorism are unacceptable in any way, and a firm stance must be taken against such incidents.
