Nahid Islam, the convener of the National Citizens' Party (NCP), stated that the party is mentally prepared for the upcoming elections. He clarified his previous remarks about the election timeline, stating that the elections would depend on political will. If political consensus is reached, parliamentary and general elections can be held as planned. However, before participating in the elections, he emphasized the need for visible judicial action and the implementation of reforms as outlined in the July Agreement.

During a press conference following a meeting of the NCP Central Committee in the capital, Nahid Islam, who recently resigned from his advisory role in the government to take up his party's responsibilities, responded to accusations of misdeeds being carried out by individuals posing as coordinators. He clarified that the coordinator position is now inactive, and legal action should be taken against anyone using that title.

Regarding the rising incidents of cyberbullying faced by female leaders from various political parties, including BNP, Awami League, and Jamaat, Nahid assured that the party would support these women in combating such harassment. The NCP plans to expand its organization across the country after Ramadan.

Contrary to previous reports that claimed Nahid Islam had stated elections were unlikely in December, he clarified that his comments were misunderstood. He expressed that holding elections under the current fragile law and order situation would be difficult, given the lack of experience in conducting fair elections. Improving law and order is essential before holding elections.

In terms of the July Agreement reforms, Nahid stressed that political consensus is needed to move forward. He mentioned that the people would soon see which political parties support or oppose reforms, and he emphasized the importance of justice and fairness before the elections.

Nahid also brought attention to the increasing harassment and bullying of women activists, particularly from anti-fascist groups. He called on the government to take appropriate action to address this issue.

Regarding the NCP’s activities, Nahid confirmed that the party is focused on fulfilling the registration requirements and has already begun organizing at the grassroots level. The full-scale activities will begin after Ramadan.

Responding to reports about the NCP receiving financial support from affluent individuals, Nahid clarified that the party is engaging in crowdfunding and plans to raise election funds through public contributions, including from various social classes. He emphasized that the NCP would be funded by the people and operate transparently. Nahid also called for financial reform in political parties and greater transparency regarding sources of financial support and how funds are spent.

Sergis Alam, the chief organizer of the NCP, explained his earlier comments on delaying the election, stressing the need for justice before holding elections. He called on political parties to focus on the victims of the 1/11 movement and ensure that the trial of those responsible for the violence is completed before any election-related discussions.

The NCP also announced two major events: an iftar gathering at Suhrawardy Udyan in honor of the martyrs and injured families of the movement, and a political and civil society iftar the following day.
