The National Citizen Party (NCP) has announced a five-point demand calling for the completion of all levels of local government elections within the next six months. The announcement was made on Sunday night at a press conference held at the party’s temporary central office in the Rupayan Trade Center in Dhaka, where party member secretary Akhtar Hossain presented the demands.

The demands include completing all local government elections within six months, refraining from appointing administrators at the upazila, municipality, union, and ward levels, ensuring that no administrator contests in local elections, maintaining neutrality of the government, Election Commission, and local administration, and conducting elections under the reformed ordinance without party symbols or nominations. NCP convener Nahid Islam, spokesperson Asif Mahmud Sajib Bhuiyan, and Local Government Election Steering Committee chairman Sarjis Alam were also present at the event.

The announcement reflects the NCP’s emphasis on timely and impartial local elections and administrative neutrality in the electoral process.
