Jamaat-e-Islami today called on the interim government to accept the five-point demand of eight like-minded political parties, including Jamaat, by November 11, or face a massive rally in Dhaka on that day.

"Before the capital turns into a sea of people on November 11, the government should accept the five-point demand and show respect to the public aspiration reflected in the July Charter. Otherwise, the scene in Dhaka will be different," Jamaat Secretary General Mia Golam Porwar said at a press briefing at the Matsha Bhaban intersection in Dhaka.

Earlier, Jamaat and seven other parties announced a programme to submit a memorandum to Chief Adviser Prof Muhammad Yunus, urging him to order the implementation of the July National Charter and to hold a referendum on it within November, along with other issues outlined in their five-point demand.

Around 11:00am, the eight parties brought out separate processions and gathered at the Paltan intersection. They later formed a joint procession that marched toward the Jatiya Press Club, eventually reaching Matsha Bhaban, where police set up barricades around 12:30pm to prevent further movement.

A delegation of nine leaders from the eight parties then proceeded to the state guesthouse Jamuna to submit the memorandum to the chief adviser.

After returning from Jamuna, Porwar told reporters that Industries Adviser Adilur Rahman Khan had received the memorandum on behalf of the chief adviser.

According to Porwar, the adviser expressed the government's sincerity in resolving the ongoing political crisis and assured that the memorandum would be delivered to the chief adviser through due process. He also said the government would make a decision after discussions among political parties within a week.

The eight parties' five-point demand includes:

Issuing an order to implement the July National Charter and holding a referendum on it within November.

Introducing a proportional representation (PR) system in the upper or both houses in the next national election.

Ensuring a level playing field for all parties to hold free, fair, and acceptable elections.

Ensuring visible justice for all acts of repression, killings, and corruption committed by the previous "fascist government."

Banning the activities of the "dictatorial collaborator" Jatiya Party and the 14-party alliance.
