The July National Charter issue has been placed as the number one item for discussion at the Advisory Council meeting tomorrow (13 November), which will be chaired by Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus.

According to sources at the Chief Adviser's Office, Thursday's meeting will discuss six agenda items in total, with "Implementation of the July Charter 2025" listed at the top, followed by four other issues. The "Miscellaneous" item is placed sixth.

The Charter, which includes plans for a referendum and the issuance of the July Order, has recently become a point of contention among political parties, including the BNP and Jamaat-e-Islami.

The BNP is pressing for the referendum to be held on the same day as the upcoming national election, while Jamaat has demanded that it take place earlier.

Additionally, the BNP has called for the implementation of the July Charter signed by all political parties, whereas Jamaat insists on enforcing the recommendations made by the National Consensus Commission.

After the previous Advisory Council meeting on 3 November, the interim government had given the political parties seven days to reach a consensus on the issue.

However, as the parties failed to do so, Chief Adviser's Press Secretary Shafiqul Alam has said the government would now take the decision on its own.

Law, Justice, and Parliamentary Affairs Adviser Asif Nazrul yesterday (11 November) said a final decision regarding the July Charter is expected within the next two to three days.
