Khelafat Majlis Ameer Maulana Abdul Basit Azad demanded the immediate implementation of the July National Charter in line with the referendum verdict. He made the call on August 5, 2026, at a pre-rally gathering outside the National Press Club in Dhaka marking the second anniversary of the July mass uprising. He described the 2024 uprising as an irresistible awakening of students and citizens aimed at safeguarding Bangladesh’s independence and sovereignty and building a discrimination-free country.

Azad alleged that the government, despite being the biggest beneficiary of the uprising, was reluctant to implement the charter. He said the majority verdict in favour of reforming the fundamental structure of the constitution was being ignored. He called reluctance to fully implement the charter after signing it a betrayal and demanded trials of fascist forces and swift execution of verdicts against fugitive convicts.

Party Secretary General Dr Ahmad Abdul Kader called for effective action against violence, extortion and partisan dominance on campuses. He urged authorities not to follow past fascist and authoritarian practices against opposition parties and views. The gathering ended with a procession from the National Press Club that went through Paltan intersection and concluded near the Bijoynagar water tank area.
