July uprising injured face police obstruction while marching towards Jamuna

The injured participants of the July uprising have resumed their protests on the roads after facing police obstruction while marching toward the residence of the Chief Adviser to realise their seven-point charter of demands.  

On Sunday (February 2), as the protesters attempted to proceed to Minto Road near Hotel InterContinental, they encountered resistance from law enforcement authorities. Consequently, the group halted and established a position at that location.

Earlier in the day, the injured concluded a sit-in protest adjacent to Shishu Mela by 6:00pm before returning briefly to the hospital. Following this, they initiated their march toward the Chief Adviser's residence at state guesthouse Jamuna.  

Since 11:00am, those receiving treatment at Pangu Hospital and Eye Hospital began gathering on the road near Shishu Mela to reiterate their demands. During the gathering, they declared their intention to continue the movement until their grievances were addressed. At 4:00 PM, they announced plans to march toward the Secretariat, later revising their route to target the Chief Adviser's residence Jamuna by 6:00pm.
