The National Consensus Party (NCP) has called on individuals and groups accused of opposing the 1971 Liberation War or aiding genocide to clearly state their current political stance. “Despite widespread participation in the recent movement, certain groups used divisive slogans contrary to the spirit of Bangladesh’s historical struggle,” NCP said. Denying any links to such rhetoric, NCP asserted that true political engagement in Bangladesh must respect the legacies of 1947, 1971, and 2024. “National unity and the success of the people’s uprising hinge on historical accountability,” the statement added.
