Chief Adviser Prof. Mohammad Yunus once again reiterated his firm stance on holding the national election by this year.
He made the statement on Thursday during an interactive plenary session at the World Government Summit 2025 in Dubai.
The Chief Adviser said, “The national election could be held by December after the implementation of the July Charter, based on the recommendations of the National Consensus Commission."
The session was moderated by Becky Anderson of CNN at the WGS Conference Venue.
Earlier, the Chief Adviser had mentioned several times his desire to hold the upcoming national election at the end of this year, including during a meeting with a BNP delegation on 10 February 2025.
While addressing the WGS, Yunus said that his government has formed reform commissions in some sectors, and they have already put forward their recommendations to rebuild the country while upholding the spirit of the July-August mass upsurge.
“We will draft a charter based on the recommendations put forward by the political parties, and thereafter, we will hold the national election following the implementation of those recommendations,” he said.
Prof. Yunus reached Dubai on Wednesday night to take part in the WGS, where the Minister of Sports of the United Arab Emirates, Ahmad Belhoul Al Falasi, received him.
