Home Minister and BNP Standing Committee Member Salahuddin Ahmed today said the party will honour the parts it agreed upon in the “July National Charter”, reaffirming its commitment ahead of the new parliamentary session.

Talking to reporters after a meeting of treasury bench lawmakers at Jatiya Sangsad Bhaban, Ahmed said discussions on public expectations and the implementation of the July martyrs’ demands will take place after the next parliament convenes.

He said the first session of the 13th Parliament will begin tomorrow, when the President will administer the oath to the Speaker and Deputy Speaker in line with parliamentary rules. 

The House will then elect the JS panel chairmen and hold a condolence motion followed by a discussion.

Ahmed also noted that 133 ordinances issued by the previous interim government will be placed before parliament during the session.

Several parliamentary committees, including the Business Advisory Committee, will also be formed. 
Later in the day, the President is scheduled to deliver his address in the maiden session, which will conclude the proceedings for the day.

According to Ahmed, the Business Advisory Committee will meet the following day to determine the parliamentary agenda, and the current session may be dissolved on March 15.
