Leaders of Khelafat Majlis expressed deep concern at their central Majlis-e-Shura session in Dhaka, accusing the BNP government of taking an anti-people stance by repealing the Referendum Ordinance 2025 along with several other major ordinances. They said the cancellation of these laws, including those on enforced disappearance prevention, anti-corruption, human rights, and judicial reform, was pushing the country toward authoritarian rule.

The leaders also criticized the BNP’s July National Charter (Constitutional Reform) Implementation Order, calling it a document of deception that undermined the spirit of the July uprising. They emphasized that the 48 proposals approved through the referendum must be reviewed by the elected parliament and implemented in line with the people’s verdict.

The session, chaired by Amir Maulana Abdul Basit Azad, also discussed the 2026 national election, public health issues such as rising measles cases, inadequate mosquito control, and shortages in government hospitals. The leaders urged the government to withdraw the decision to hold online classes three days a week and demanded accountability from the Election Commission over alleged irregularities in recent by-elections.
