The AB Party has declared a 36-day program to commemorate the July uprising. Chairman Mojibur Rahman Monju said elections are the only legitimate means of changing power but accused the ruling party of trying to cling to power without them—just as during the Liberation War. Monju recalled the 1991 caretaker government elections, later enshrined in the constitution, and accused Sheikh Hasina’s regime of dismantling all democratic safeguards. He emphasized that simply installing a new government through elections would not fulfill the promises of 1971, 1990, and 2024. Instead, all parties must build consensus to create a new political order through free and fair elections.
