At least 50 people were injured in a clash between Police and Biharis at Mohammadpur in the capital on Saturday.

The clash erupted as a team led by local councilor Mizan obstructed the non-Bengali people to block road causing immense public sufferings.

The residents of the Geneva Camp, also known as Bihari camp, took to the streets protesting “frequent load shedding” in their camp every day.
Police fired tear shell and rubber bullets to disperse the mob for bringing the situation under control.

Geneva Camp in Dhaka’s Mohammadpur is a colony of the stranded Pakistanis who migrated to the then East Pakistan from the Indian state of Bihar during the partition of 1947. The Urdu-speaking Muslims have been living there since the end of the 1971 War of Liberation.
