Senior Joint Convener of the NCP, Samantha Sharmin, emphasized that the July Declaration and Charter must be given legal recognition without delay. Speaking at a rally in Mymensingh’s Town Hall Square, as part of the ongoing July March, Sharmin said, "We envisioned a renewed Bangladesh. The first 15 days of our march went smoothly. Now, however, the NCP is facing disruptions. This is unacceptable." She reiterated the party’s firm stance that the promises of reform made in July must be upheld legally and without compromise.
