NCP Convenor Nahid Islam warned that despite giving leeway over the past year, no concessions will be granted in the July manifesto or charter this year. He claimed the revolutionary energy remains strong on the streets and stressed the need for unity within the opposition to prevent a repeat of 1/11-style setbacks. Nahid emphasized the demand for elections but insisted these must be accompanied by genuine reforms. Without fulfilling promises, no political party can assume power. He urged reform to begin within parties and expressed a desire to see youth leadership in the future National Parliament. Calling for military training for youth to strengthen national defense, Nahid highlighted the rise of citizens’ and youth parties from grassroots movements, envisioning youth as the country’s vanguard. He assured that the July march is not over and pledged to return to mobilize supporters soon.
