NCP leader Akhtar Hossain warned that any attempt to obstruct the drafting of a new constitution would bring his party to the streets “in a second.” He criticized the Yunus-led interim government for sidestepping the July Charter, saying: “The Commission showed strong intent when discussing reforms, but when it came to implementation, it seemed to bow under pressure.” Hossain revealed that discussions on 20 key issues have already taken place but insisted that the July Charter must be implemented through broad-based political consensus, not in consultation with just one party.
