The BNP today deferred to Tuesday the countrywide hartal it had called for tomorrow.
The party's Senior Joint Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi informed journalists of the party's decision through a virtual press briefing.
The deferment is because of the state mourning declared tomorrow for the death of Kuwait's Emir Sheikh Nawaf al-Ahmad al-Sabah on Saturday, he said.
BNP and likeminded parties will therefore enforce the hartal on Tuesday, Rizvi added.
