The National Citizen Party has said it will sign the July Charter only if the implementation order excludes any provision for a "note of dissent" and incorporates the recommendations of the Consensus Commission on constitutional reform, reports bdnews24.com. NCP Convener Nahid Islam announced the party's position while speaking at a press conference at the Rajshahi Parjantan Motel on Tuesday afternoon. He said: "The July Charter implementation order will not contain anything called a 'note of dissent'. The decisions of the Consensus Commission on constitutional reform must go to a referendum, and changes to the constitution must be made in accordance with the people's verdict. Nahid said the NCP would sign the July Charter only if the government ensured these points.
