Chief Advisor Muhammad Yunus is going to sit with 20 political parties in two stages to explore ways to mitigate the ongoing political discord. Jamaat asked for a roadmap for reforms along with the elections, but did not mention a time frame. The NCP discussed the July Proclamation along with their demands of justice, reforms and Constituent Assembly elections in their meeting. They urged the government to scrap results of all elections held during the Awami League era through legal steps. As the political winds grew turbulent, swirling speculation over Yunus’s potential resignation as chief advisor compounded the crisis, prompting key political parties to urge him to stay on and lead the country through the transition.
