A BNP delegation is scheduled to meet Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus today (16 April), following the party’s request for a discussion regarding the upcoming national election and reforms.
According to the schedule, a BNP standing committee member, led by party Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir, will meet the chief adviser at his official residence and State Guest House Jamuna, at 12pm, reports UNB.
Earlier, the BNP requested an appointment with the chief adviser to resolve confusion regarding the national election.
“We have sought time to meet the chief adviser. After meeting with him, we will talk about this [election] issue,” BNP Standing Committee member Salahuddin Ahmed earlier said.
BNP senior leaders told UNB that the party will deliver a ‘strong message’ that it will not accept any attempt to delay the national election beyond December this year.
They will also urge the chief adviser to issue a clear statement regarding the election timeline.
