Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami has urged for an all-party meeting to find a solution to the country’s ongoing political and socio-economic challenges. The call was made by party Ameer Dr. Shafiqur Rahman during an emergency meeting of the party’s Central Executive Committee held on Thursday afternoon at the party’s central office. The meeting, chaired by Dr. Shafiqur Rahman, was attended by members of the Central Executive Committee.
According to a press release issued by the party, the current national situation was discussed in detail during the session, with emphasis on the need for unity and constructive dialogue across political lines.
In a significant move, Dr. Shafiqur Rahman appealed to the Honorable Chief Adviser, Professor Dr. Muhammad Yunus, to convene an all-party conference aimed at creating a roadmap for overcoming the country’s prevailing crises.
He stated that inclusive dialogue among all political parties and stakeholders is crucial to restoring stability, ensuring democratic processes, and addressing the pressing concerns of the people.
Meanwhile, amid rising political tensions over the election roadmap and demands for key government resignations, Jamaat-e-Islami chief Shafiqur Rahman has also urged political forces to act responsibly and avoid divisive rhetoric for the sake of national unity.
In a Facebook post on Thursday afternoon, Shafiqur Rahman called on “all anti-fascist forces” to rise above pride and resentment, urging them to adopt a “farsighted and responsible role” in the national interest. “Let each of us fulfill our responsibilities to the utmost from our respective positions,” he wrote.
Earlier in the day, the Jamaat chief had posted another message urging everyone to avoid “sensitive and controversial issues” that could deepen divisions. “A positive role in overcoming crises will only benefit the nation. A negative role never brings welfare,” he stated.
The comments come at a time when Bangladesh is facing renewed political unrest, with major opposition parties, including the BNP, warning of a withdrawal of cooperation with the interim government if a clear election roadmap is not announced by December.
Simultaneously, public protests have erupted against the proposed Rakhine human corridor and over demands for the resignation of several interim government advisers.
Though the Jamaat chief refrained from directly naming specific parties or issues, his remarks signal a broader appeal for moderation as the country navigates a volatile political landscape.
