The Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) is taking preparation to hold its 7th national council soon.
The party has already sent its direction to all the organizational units to make everything ready, BNP sources said.
Secretary General of BNP Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir on Saturday said, “We are preparing for 7th national council. We have already started our activities, including reorganising our district units, for it.”
Fakhrul told it to the reporters after placing wreaths at BNP Founder Ziaur Rahman’s grave. Party’s two newly-appointed standing committee members Selima Rahman and Iqbal Hasan Mahmud Tuku were with him.
He said that Selima and Tuku had been co-opted as BNP Standing Committee Members to fill the vacant posts in the party’s highest policymaking body.
“It has been done in recognition to their contributions to party for a long time. They have also a positive image in the political circle,” he said.
After three years of the party national council, BNP on Wednesday announced that Selima and Tuku were appointed its standing committee members.
BNP’s sixth national council was held on March 19, 2016.
When his attention was drawn to three more vacant posts in their standing committee, the BNP secretary general said, steps to be taken in due time.
Fakhrul added that they had taken a fresh vow to intensify their movement to free Khaleda Zia from jail and ‘restore’ democracy.
He said also that the government must hold a fresh election under a non-party administration so that people can elect their representatives with their votes.
