Opposition Chief Whip and NCP convener Nahid Islam, Member of Parliament for Dhaka-11, proposed skipping the discussion on the President’s address during the 11th day of the first session of the 13th National Parliament. He made the proposal on Wednesday, April 8, while raising a point of order in the session presided over by Deputy Speaker Kaiser Kamal. Nahid argued that the parliament must pass several ordinances as bills by April 9 or 12 and that priority should be given to completing this legislative process within the limited time.
He explained that both government and opposition members had agreed earlier to focus on passing the ordinances instead of continuing the debate on the President’s speech. Nahid emphasized that this approach would prevent any future claims that the opposition lacked time to discuss bills where they had dissenting opinions. He also noted the absence of the Leader of the House and requested that the discussion on the President’s address be shortened to expedite the legislative process.
Deputy Speaker Kaiser Kamal acknowledged the proposal, assuring that both treasury and opposition benches were working together to ensure an effective and strong parliament. Government Chief Whip Nurul Islam supported Nahid’s remarks, noting that 133 ordinances were pending and praising the opposition’s cooperation.
