Administrator of Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC) Md. Shafiqul Islam Khan has accused a specific political party and vested quarter of exploiting the readymade garment (RMG) worker demonstrations to create chaos and instability in the capital. Inspecting the clash-affected areas of Mirpur on Tuesday, November 3, 2026, the Administrator questioned the active presence of Awami League, Jubo League, and Chhatra League members within the labor movement.
Shafiqul Islam Khan stated that identified portfolio-holding political leaders are infiltrating the protests to engineer a political crisis aimed at facilitating the return of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina in December. He warned that law enforcement agencies have already identified key agitators and will bring them under legal custody, emphasizing that no form of street anarchy will be tolerated.
