The National Citizens' Party will start a nationwide march across Bangladesh next month. The group plans to visit all 64 districts during July to mark the uprising anniversary. Party leader Nahid Islam spoke about the campaign at a morning news meeting. He said the march will honor people who died during last year's protests. The month-long effort aims to connect with citizens from different backgrounds.
The political march begins July 1 at martyr Abu Sayed's burial site. Party members will travel from district to district meeting families of those killed. They want to hear citizen concerns and explain their political goals. The group calls their effort the July March to Build the Nation. Leaders expect the campaign to strengthen ties with local communities.
The party plans three major observance days during the anniversary period. July 16 will honor Abu Sayed and other protest victims as Anti-Discrimination Martyrs' Day. August 3 marks when leaders will announce their July Declaration at the Shaheed Minar. August 5 becomes People's Liberation Day celebrating the uprising's success. These dates commemorate the 36-day period that changed Bangladesh's political landscape.
Nahid Islam criticized the current government for missing important deadlines. Officials promised to complete a July Declaration document before December 31 but failed to deliver. The NCP leader said his party will create and present the declaration themselves. He acknowledged both achievements and failures since the uprising occurred. The march represents their commitment to continue the reform movement.
