Referring to various past precedents and examples as a ‘doctrine of necessity’ during a national crisis, Jamaat has repeatedly expressed its position on the legal basis of the July Charter.
To this end, Jamaat has already submitted two proposals to the government based on the opinions of legal and constitutional experts to provide legal grounding for the charter.
The first is to issue a ‘constitutional order’ for the July National Charter. And second is to hold a referendum before the election to further strengthen its legal basis and implement the July Charter.
The statement warned that without a legal foundation, the July Charter, an achievement gained through the blood of students and the people in the uprising, could end in failure.
