During a rally in Rangamati as part of a national march, Nahid Islam, Convener of the National Citizen Party (NCP), called for the abolition of the current "Mujibist" constitution and the drafting of a new one that ensures representation of all ethnic communities in Bangladesh.

"We are reaching out to every community, in every village, as part of this march," Nahid stated. "Some groups benefit by keeping the Chittagong Hill Tracts divided and unstable — we will not let that continue."

He urged unity to eliminate division and unrest in the region. Speakers at the rally also criticized the practice of transferring corrupt officials to the hill districts as punishment, calling for accountability and justice.
