Cox's Bazar, Mar 24 (V7N) – Mia Golam Parwar has alleged that both the government and Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) have taken a “180-degree turn” from the aspirations of the July Revolution and their earlier commitment to implement the “July National Charter.”

Speaking to reporters at Cox's Bazar Airport on Monday afternoon, the Secretary General of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami termed the shift as political duplicity.

“The dream of a new Bangladesh achieved through immense sacrifice is not being reflected after the formation of the government,” Parwar said. “The BNP had promised to implement the July Charter, but now they are moving in a different direction.”

He further alleged that despite assurances not to challenge the charter, a writ petition has effectively placed the issue in court, claiming it was done with indirect government support.

“On one hand, they speak for the people; on the other, they adopt a different strategy behind the scenes—this is clear hypocrisy,” he added.

Referring to public support, Parwar claimed that the July Charter received stronger backing in a referendum than in the national election. “The law is for the people, not the people for the law. Rejecting the charter on the excuse of parliamentary majority contradicts democratic principles,” he said.

To address the ongoing political situation, he called on the government to swear in a Constitutional Reform Council and incorporate the July National Charter into the Constitution through a presidential order.

According to him, this would be the most effective way to resolve the current crisis. He also warned that failure to act could push people back to street movements.

Parwar added that Jamaat-e-Islami would continue to play its role as an opposition party both inside parliament and on the streets.

He was received by local party leaders and activists upon arrival at the airport during his organizational visit.
