The National Citizen Party has called on the chief advisor to take immediate and decisive action against the Jatiya Party for its involvement in legitimising past controversial national elections.
Following a meeting with chief adviser, NCP senior joint convener Ariful Islam Adeeb said that the continued operation of the JP poses a significant threat to the democratic process.
The NCP urged the chief advisor to suspend JP鈥檚 organisational activities and initiate steps to hold its leadership accountable, he said.
During the meeting, the party also strongly advocated for the upcoming national elections to be held as a constituent assembly election aimed at adopting a new constitution.
NCP leader Adeeb also said that the current political crisis in the country cannot be resolved within the existing constitutional framework.
He said that the NCP also presented a series of recommendations to the government. These included calls for improved law and order across the country, the holding of free and fair student union elections, and the reintroduction of direct voting for reserved women鈥檚 parliamentary seats.
The party also urged the government to revise the current voter eligibility criteria so that citizens turning 18 by February 2026 can be included in the electoral roll.
