Nandit Nayak Ilyas Kanchan has been campaigning for ‘safe roads‘ for a long time. He shared his experience on the occasion of National Road Safety Day on Tuesday (October 22). At that time, he said, he had to fight with Shajahan Khan, a former member of parliament and two-term shipping minister.
Elias Kanchan said in the press conference that he had to face many problems to continue the safe road movement for a long time. He has also come under the wrath of one-time labor leader and former Awami League member of Parliament Shajahan Khan.
Ilyas Kanchan said, “I had to fight with mafia gangs like Shajahan Khan Gang while doing the movement for safe roads.” Not only that, they hung my picture and threw shoes. He beat me with a broom in my picture.’
Ilyas Kanchan claims that ‘National Safe Road Day’ is being officially celebrated today as a continuation of his long-running movement. But one group is denying this.
Elias Kanchan said in this regard, ‘The movement demanding safe roads in 2018 has been established as National Safe Road Day on October 22 even before that. But now it is being said that public desire has been created on the basis of their demands. Before this, people did not have any desire for safe roads.’
Recently, Elias Kanchan has been sharing his views with his fans on the current government and political issues on Facebook Live. He said, ‘The talks that have started about the government are terrible. We who participated in this movement with a lot of risk and sacrifice, if this government fails, if this movement fails, if they come back again, then what will happen to us? But none of us are thinking about what will happen to us. I am saying these words live to remind everyone.’
