Javed Rasin, a leader of the National Consensus Party (NCP), has criticized the Election Commission for publishing the draft of the July Charter without prior discussion or consensus on its decision-making framework.

He stated, “The Commission outlined six methods of decision-making but released the draft unilaterally, without any discussion. This is not the correct way to proceed. Imposing something without mutual agreement is unacceptable.”

Rasin emphasized that any reform proposals or recommendations that have received consensus must be legally endorsed before the next parliamentary elections. He also mentioned a new proposal to form a seven-member caretaker committee, including two additional members from the judiciary to oversee the voting process — a proposal accepted by all parties except the BNP and some of its allies.
