Sylhet district unit of National Citizen Party on Saturday announced a six-point work plan to accelerate and ensure development activities in the district.

The NCP district convener Md Junaid Ahmed announced the six-point action plan on behalf of the party in a press conference held at a hotel in the city at noon.


In a written speech, he said that Sylhet is still lagging behind in many areas such as infrastructure, education, health and employment.

‘To change this situation, the NCP has taken the initiative of setting six-point work plan to build a strong organisational base in Sylhet,’ Junaid said.

The demands are to form of a citizen forum to monitor the development, services and public sufferings, to involve young generation in civil rights-centred politics, to organise regular public dialogues to ensure civil rights, anti-corruption initiatives and accountability, to set a proposal to formulate a ‘Citizen Development Fund’ by involving expatriates and local residents, to formulate a citizen action plan at the district level in four sectors- environment, education, health and employment and to maintain systematic protest against any injustice.

The NCP district convener said in the programme that his party does not believe in individual-centric or vindictive politics, rather it believes in principled, service-based civic politics.

He also said that Bangladesh’s improvement would be sustainable only when every region of the country would get equal opportunities for development.

The NCP Sylhet district unit leaders including its member secretary Kamrul Arif were also present at the press conference.
