Six reform commissions to start works by Oct 1: Asif Nazrul

Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs Adviser Dr. Asif Nazrul on Thursday said the six commissions announced by the interim government to bring reform in six major sectors will start their works by October 1 next.

“The committees of the six reform commissions will start works within October 1 and we hope that they will be able to submit their reports within December 31 next,” he said while speaking at a press briefing at Foreign Service Academy here this evening.

Later, based on their reports, the council of advisers led by chief adviser will start dialogue with the political parties on reform thoughts, Asif Nazrul said.

Besides, he said, there will be broad-based consultations with the representatives of all sections of the society.  “Once the reports are submitted, those will be made open online to get reflect from all,” he added. 

The law adviser said the expectation created by the student-people revolution was not limited within elections but it was a question of the state reform and a dream of establishment of real democracy in the country.

He said it is necessary to reform the state so that the fascist forces cannot emerge again in the country and that kind of thoughts was reflected through the student-people movement.
