Nagorik Oikya President Mahmudur Rahman Manna has criticized Chief Adviser Dr. Muhammad Yunus for lacking engagement with political parties. He stated that Yunus repeatedly claims only one political party wants elections but provides no explanation or accountability.

Manna said that Yunus often avoids direct questions, responding with a smile or silence, and despite calling five meetings with all parties, practical dialogue has been absent. “When people ask whether elections will be held, their concern is justified,” Manna added.
