Monday, 5 October 2020
Gonoforum, led by its president Dr Kamal Hossain, has served show cause notices on its four senior leaders, including former general secretary Mostafa Mohsin Montu, for 'creating chaos in the party and violating its charter', reports UNB.
The three other leaders are party's former executive presidents Dr Abu Syeed, Subrata Chowdhury and presidium member Zoglul Haider Afrik.
"We sent the show-cause notices to the four leaders who are violating party discipline and constitution on September 28 asking them to respond within a week," party general secretary Dr Reza Kibria told the news agency on Sunday.
In the notices, he said they have mentioned the different sections of his party constitution that have been violated by the four leaders.
Reza Kibria said they will wait until two weeks for their replies to the notices. "If they don't come up with any satisfactory replies, we'll take organisational actions against them."
Stating that his party's central convening committee is going to hold a meeting on October 17 at the National Press Club, he said the meeting will approve the actions to be taken against the four leaders.
Contacted, Mostafa Mohsin Montu said they still did not receive any such notices. "Once we receive that, we'll take further steps in this regard."
He, however, said they did not violate any party discipline and any section of his party constitution. "Rather, they (Dr Kamal and Reza Kibria) are continuously breaching the constitution. They dissolved the central committee and formed a convening committee going out of our constriction. Now they don't have any existence in Gonoforum according to the constitution. "
As per the constitution, Montu said only a council and party central committee meeting can take a decision on dissolving any party for forming a convening one.
