A group representing those injured in the mass uprising in July and August have split among themselves after coming to the Secretariat to express their frustrations and complaints regarding their treatment. The injured undergoing treatment at the National Institute of Traumatology and Orthopaedic Rehabilitation and the National Institute of Ophthalmology came to the Ministry of Health at the Secretariat at 2pm on Thursday for a pre-planned meeting. When the injured from other hospitals attempted to join the meeting, they were blocked by those who had protested at NITOR on Wednesday night. Anti-discrimination Student Movement coordinators Hasnat Abdullah and Sarjis Alam tried repeatedly to calm the situation, but were not able to. At one point, Hasnat said that they see the politics of division among the injured with suspicion.
