Observer Online Report

The National Citizen Party (NCP) is set to restructure its central committee, with Nasiruddin Patwary, Hasnat Abdullah, Asif Mahmud Shojib Bhuyain and Sarjis Alam expected to take on new roles as the party abolishes four existing posts.

According to party sources, the positions of chief coordinator, spokesperson, chief organiser for the southern region and chief organiser for the northern region will be abolished, while the posts of convener and member secretary will remain unchanged.

The decision was taken at a meeting of the party’s highest policy-making body, the Political Council, at the NCP’s central office.

NCP Joint Convener Sarwar Tushar said several positions had been revised. The party has created two senior joint convener posts and two senior joint member secretary posts. Heads of several subcommittees will also be announced.

Under the proposed restructuring, current chief coordinator Nasiruddin Patwary and chief organiser for the southern region Hasnat Abdullah are expected to become senior joint conveners.

Current spokesperson Asif Mahmud Shojib Bhuyain and chief organiser for the northern region Sarjis Alam are expected to become senior joint member secretaries.

Sarjis will oversee organisational affairs in his new role, while Ariful Islam Adeeb and Ali Ahsan Junayed will serve as assistant chiefs, according to party sources.

The party is expected to announce the restructured central committee and the distribution of responsibilities on Tuesday night.

The meeting also decided that Nahid Islam would inaugurate a week-long programme beginning on October 23, with senior party leaders expected to participate.

Ahead of Durga Puja, NCP leaders and members of its affiliated organisations will work to ensure security at puja mandaps across Dhaka and the rest of the country and maintain communal harmony. Senior leaders will visit puja mandaps in their respective constituencies and exchange greetings with members of the Hindu community.

At a meeting on Sunday, the party said the restructuring of its central committee and the allocation of responsibilities had been finalised, with an announcement expected by October 13.

NCP lawmakers Hasnat Abdullah, Abdullah Al Amin and Nusrat Tabassum attended the meeting. Other senior leaders present included Sarjis Alam, Nasiruddin Patwary, Asif Mahmud Shojib Bhuyain, Ariful Islam Adeeb, Sarwar Tushar, Ali Ahsan Junayed and Salehuddin Sifat.
