Chief adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus, as part of the ongoing talks with stakeholders including political parties, will hold talks with another group of political parties on Saturday.
Fifteen political parties and alliances, including Gono Forum, Liberal Democratic Party and Andaleeve Rahman-led Bangladesh Jatiya Party, Jatiyatabadi Samamana Jote, 12 Party Alliance, Jatiya Mukti Council, and Labour Party, will join Saturday鈥檚 dialogue.
Chief adviser鈥檚 deputy press secretary Abul Kalam Azad Majumder shared the updates with reporters at a media briefing at the Foreign Service Academy in Dhaka聽 on Tuesday. Responding to a question on HM Ershad鈥檚 Jatiya Party, Azad said that the dialogue was an ongoing process and any further decision would be communicated accordingly.
When his attention was drawn to the reported 鈥榤inus-two鈥� formula, he said that this was not an issue of the interim government, and the matter was never discussed.
Saturday鈥檚 dialogue will be the second such dialogue in the second spell of talks that began on October 6 with the participation of BNP, Jamaat, CPB, and some other political parties.
The key purpose of the dialogue is to inform the political parties about the progress of the reform works and seek their suggestions.
