DHAKA, Oct 2, 2024 (BSS) - The council of advisers of the interim government will again start holding dialogues with the major political parties on Saturday over the works of the six commissions, formed to reform the state apparatus, and the country's law and order situation.

"The council of advisers will inform the political parties of the developments over the commissions. The advisers will also exchange views with them (political leaders) over the law and order situation and seek their suggestions," Chief Adviser's Press Secretary Shafiqul Alam told a press briefing at Foreign Service Academy here.

He hoped that the full commissions would be constituted within two or three days so that those can start working in full swing.

Replying to a question, the press secretary said the chiefs of the commissions have already started their works, while the terms of reference (ToR) of the commissions have already been finalised and the authorities concerned are looking for office spaces for the commissions.

Terming the dialogue an ongoing process, he said the main political parties will be invited to join the dialogue and the council of advisers will talk to the political leaders.

Alam said the reform commissions are expected to submit their respective reports by December 31 and then the council of advisers will hold consultations with the political parties again.

Noting that the interim government welcomes criticism, he said the council of advisers is representing the country's people and nobody is above criticism.

Responding to another query over the situation in the Chittagong Hill Tracts (CHT), the press secretary said the CHT is a larger area and he did not think an unstable situation is prevailing in the hilly region now. "The situation is far better now," he added.
