Professor Ali Riaz told political leaders that everyone agrees on the big changes coming to Bangladesh. The Vice-Chairman of the National Consensus Commission spoke at the Foreign Service Academy during heated talks with party bosses. Riaz said the July Charter will be finished before the month ends. Political parties and the commission are working together without any major fights. The professor wants to wrap up the issues that have already made good progress.
The commission has been talking with political groups for two months and many big decisions have been made. Riaz said they must agree on the most important changes to how the government works. The country needs strong rules that will stop any dictator from taking control again. Political leaders must build a system that protects democracy from future threats. The professor stressed that these reforms are crucial for keeping Bangladesh free.
Thirty political parties showed up for the latest round of talks including the BNP and Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami. Other groups like the National Citizens Party and Communist Party of Bangladesh also sent representatives. Justice Md Emdadul Haque and Dr Iftekharuzzaman joined other commission members at the meeting. The day focused on three major topics that will shape the country. Leaders discussed who should pick the Chief Justice and how emergency powers should work.
