July Proclamation due on Tuesday

The interim government has finalised the draft of the July Proclamation, reports BSS.

The July Proclamation will be presented before the nation on Tuesday (August 5) at 5 pm in the presence of all stakeholders of the mass uprising, said a press release issued by Chief Adviser's Press Wing.

Details will be announced soon to this end, the press release said.

Information and Broadcasting Adviser Mahfuj Alam has said in his facebook post that the much-talked-about July Proclamation will be announced by August 5 next.

"The July Proclamation is now a reality and it must be announced by August 5. I am grateful to everyone for keeping the issue alive in the public interest and paving the way for its implementation," the adviser wrote on his verified Facebook page on Friday night.

The July Proclamation was the moot point in the political arena since the toppling of the Awami League government in the face of student-led mass movement on August 5 last year.

The government, meanwhile, has sent the final draft of the proclamation to BNP, Jamaat, NCP, and other political parties, inviting their recommendations, if any, on the matter.

Earlier, on July 25, National Citizen Party (NCP) Convener Nahid Islam said his party is determined to realise the July charter and July Proclamation by August 5, as part of its ongoing movement for reforms, justice and a new constitution.
