Information and broadcasting adviser Md Mahfuj Alam on Tuesday said that the Awami League faced insolvency or bankrupt subsequent to the year 2014.
‘Despite the party’s organizational size, its internal viability had been severely undermined,’ he said this while speaking as the special guest at a book unveiling ceremony at a hotel in the city.
In his speech, he acknowledged that the July uprising has presented a golden opportunity for reform.
However, he emphasised that comprehensive change has been promised and attempted by previous administrations-including after the 1990 political change, and under the military-backed caretaker regime. The adviser asserted that the central issue is not simply implementing good policies, but rather addressing the structural problems that have persisted.
‘The political goal is not just reform or changing institution names or designations. Instead, the objective is the abolition of the system and creating a new political arrangement,’ he added.
He confirmed that the comprehensive approach was deliberately integrated into the ‘one-point demand’.
‘During discussions on the night of the July, the demand was insisted upon to include not only Hasina’s downfall but also the specific terminology: the downfall of Hasina and the abolition of the system, alongside the call for a new political arrangement,’ he added.
