“We all should remain alert so that no new constitutional or political crisis is created in the country,” he told reporters in front of the State Guest House Jamuna here after a BNP delegation met Chief Adviser Professor Muhammad Yunus there.
The BNP delegation included party standing committee members Nazrul Islam Khan, Amir Khashru Mahmud Chowdhury and Salah Uddin Ahmed.
Law Adviser Dr Asif Nazrul and Chief Adviser’s Special Assistant Mahfuj Alam were present at the meeting.
Asked whether they talked about resignation of President Mohammed Shahabuddin during their meeting with the chief adviser, Nazrul Islam Khan said it has been observed that the fallen fascist and its allies, through different tactics and ways, have been trying to create a political and constitutional crisis in the country.
“We believe that our national unity needs to be strengthened to restore democracy and protect the chang-es we achieved through a long struggle and in exchange of blood. All political parties, professional or-ganisations, students and youths need to build a stronger unity so that none can create a new constitu-tional or political crisis in the country. We all need to remain alert,” he said.
Asked about the outcomes of the meeting with the chief adviser, the BNP leader said they discussed car-rying out reform works speedily on the basis of consensus to resolve ongoing crises and restore democ-racy.
