He made the call while taking part in a discussion on the motion for summoning the session of the Constitution Reform Council in parliament today. Opposition Leader Dr Shafiqur Rahman placed the motion in the House under the Section 62 of the Rules of Procedure for summoning the session of the Constitution Reform Council in line with July National Charter (Constitution Reform) Implementation Order, 2025. The Home Minister said BNP supports constitutional reforms but believes such reforms must be carried out through democratic procedures, parliamentary consensus and constitutional provisions rather than through executive orders or unconstitutional mechanisms. The Home Minister finally proposed forming a parliamentary special committee for constitutional amendments consisting of members from all political parties and independent lawmakers to prepare reform proposals and place constitutional amendment bills in parliament for approval. The minister said BNP is committed to democratic constitutional amendments and pledged to implement reforms through parliamentary dialogue, consensus and constitutional procedures to meet public expectations and uphold democratic values.
