The Education Rights Parliament has expressed deep concern over the government's move to swiftly approve the proposed Education Act 2026. In a statement signed by its convener, Professor Niaz Asadullah, the organization said that passing such a significant law during the interim government's limited tenure, without public engagement, stakeholder consultation, or national consensus, would be inappropriate.

The statement emphasized that the Education Act is a long-term, multidimensional law requiring participation from all relevant stakeholders, evidence-based analysis, and broad civic discussion. The group warned that approving the draft in the current context would undermine democratic deliberation and participation. It also pointed out definitional ambiguities, unclear governance structures, and a lack of implementation guidelines in the draft, which could lead to future administrative and policy complications.

The Education Rights Parliament proposed deferring the approval of the Education Act 2026 until a newly elected government takes office, allowing for inclusive participation and the creation of a stronger, sustainable, and widely accepted education law.
