The opposition parties in Bangladesh’s National Parliament staged a walkout on Wednesday afternoon after failing to receive a response regarding their demand to convene a meeting of the Constitutional Reform Council. Opposition leader Shafiqul Rahman announced the walkout, leading members out of the chamber in protest against what they described as an attempt to suppress their proposal by introducing another motion.
The dispute followed Tuesday’s discussion on a pending motion about convening the council. The ruling party had proposed forming an all-party special parliamentary committee on constitutional amendments, but the opposition disagreed, insisting that any committee should center on the Constitutional Reform Council. During Wednesday’s session, Shafiqul Rahman sought a ruling from Speaker Hafiz Uddin Ahmed, who replied that the earlier motion was inadmissible for legislative reasons but that further discussion could be allowed.
The opposition leader maintained that their demand reflected public sentiment and accused the government of disregarding voter expectations. The Speaker acknowledged their right to walk out, and opposition members subsequently left the chamber.
