Jatiyatabadi Jubo Dal, a political organization, has expelled around 300 of its leaders and activists across the country due to activities deemed inconsistent with its core ideals. The announcement was made by the organization's President, Abdul Monayem Munna, during a press conference in Dhaka.

Munna stated that criminal cases have been initiated against many of those expelled as a measure to protect the organization's reputation and uphold its principles. The press conference was convened to inform the media about the organization's current political stance and future plans. He also noted that disciplinary actions against some individuals have been rescinded after thorough investigations were conducted.

"We want to clearly say that no person or group will get the chance to carry out illegal activities by using the name of the organisation," Munna said in a written statement, emphasizing the organization's commitment to preventing misuse of its name for illicit purposes. Several central leaders, including General Secretary Mohammad Nurul Islam Nayan, were present at the briefing.

Munna detailed the organization's internal disciplinary procedures. He explained that cases at the union level are handled by district committees, while offenses involving leaders at the upazila or district levels are addressed by the central body. The organization also indicated that law enforcement and intelligence agencies are involved in ongoing investigations related to these matters.
