Sarjis Alam, a senior leader of the National Change Platform (NCP), addressed recent statements made by activist Umama Fatema. He acknowledged her contributions during the popular uprising and her leadership in anti-discrimination movements but noted that perspectives differ. "Some of her concerns need to be understood through dialogue. Not all her allegations can be dismissed outright, nor can they all be accepted without scrutiny," Sarjis added. He emphasized the importance of collaboration to address issues constructively within the evolving post-uprising context.
