Sammilita Ainjibi Samannoy Parisad (SASP) yesterday expressed concern, as elections to different district bars, including the one in Dhaka, were being stalled due to the Emergency Power Rules (EPR) and termed the government action as unfortunate.

Reviewing the situation at an emergency meeting, the SASP urged the government to reconsider its stand, but EC and police commissioner did not accept their prayer, said one of the members of SASP.

Presided over by SASP convenor Barrister M Amir-Ul Islam, the meeting was addressed, among others, by Advocates Shafique Ahmed, Abdul Baset Majumder, Mahbubey Alam, Yusuf Hossain Humayun, Shahara Khatun, Subrata Chowdhury, AFM Mesbahuddin, Nurul Islam Sujan, M Enayetur Rahim, AM Amin Uddin, Mahbub Ali and Ruhul Quddus Babu.
