BNP Standing Committee member Salahuddin Ahmed said, ‘BNP agrees on 25 constitutional reform proposals given by the Reform Commission.’
Salahuddin Ahmed said this after a meeting with the National Consensus Commission on reforms on Thursday (April 17, 2025) afternoon.
He said, ‘We agree with 25 of the reform proposals and have given partial opinions on 25. We (BNP) have disagreements on the rest.’
The senior BNP leader said, ‘We will try to reach a consensus on the basic proposals made, starting from the constitutional proposals to the constitutional amendments. We will do what is logical. If necessary, we will sit again.’
Noting that opinions have been expressed on 89 points on the reform of the judiciary, he added, ‘Everything should be constitutional. We want the independence of the judiciary. The process should be constitutional.’
Salahuddin Ahmed said, ‘Most of the amendments have been made to the electoral system reform. NID, delimitation should be under the Election Commission.’
