Advisory Council statement on the emerging situation
The Advisory Council has clarified the interim government’s position on the situation arising out of the rumors of the resignation of Chief Advisor Dr. Muhammad Yunus. The position was outlined in a statement after the unscheduled meeting of the Advisory Council after the meeting of the National Economic Council today, Saturday.
The statement said that the meeting was held at the Planning Commission in the Sher-e-Bangla Nagar area of the capital under the chairmanship of Chief Advisor Professor Muhammad Yunus. The meeting discussed in detail the three main responsibilities (elections, reforms and justice) entrusted to the interim government.
The meeting discussed in detail the way in which various unreasonable demands, motivated and unauthorized statements and programs are being made at different times to disrupt the normal working environment and create doubts and suspicions in the public mind.
The Advisory Council believes that greater unity is needed to keep the country stable, advance elections, trials and reforms, and permanently prevent the arrival of dictatorship in this country. The interim government will listen to the views of political parties on this issue and clarify the government’s position.
Advisory Council statement on the emerging situation
Despite hundreds of obstacles, the interim government is fulfilling its responsibilities, ignoring group interests. If the government’s responsibilities are made impossible by the influence of defeated forces and as part of a foreign conspiracy, the government will raise all the reasons in public and take the next decision.
The interim government embodies the public’s expectations of the July coup. But if the government’s uniqueness, reform initiatives, trial process, fair elections and activities that hinder normal activities make it impossible to fulfill the assigned responsibilities, the government will take the necessary decisions together with the people.
