  • Keramat Ali, a member of Jubo Dal's Pabna district unit, has been summoned over alleged "vile and hateful comments" on Facebook.

  • Ali must explain his remarks to Jubo Dal leadership by July 25.

Keramat Ali, a member of the Jubo Dal's Pabna district unit, faces a show-cause notice for allegedly posting "vile and hateful comments" on Facebook. The remarks were directed at Khaled Hossain Parag, the prime minister's photographer, and his deceased father. The organization's central executive committee issued the notice on Wednesday after learning of the posts from Ali's personal account.

Screenshots of the alleged comments have circulated widely on social media. Jubo Dal described Ali's conduct as "regrettable and embarrassing" for an individual holding a significant position within the district unit. The notice mandates that Ali appear before Jubo Dal President Abdul Monayem Munna and General Secretary Mohammad Nurul Islam Nayan on July 25.

During this meeting, Ali is expected to provide his explanation for the controversial Facebook posts. The summoning highlights the organization's stance against such behavior from its members, particularly those in leadership roles.
