Expelled and reformist leaders of Jamaat-e-Islam have announced to form a new organisation with a slogan 'Jana Akhankhar Bangladesh'.
The reformist leaders of the party came up with the announcement to form the new political outfit headed by expelled ex-leader Majibur Rahman Monju at a press conference at a city hotel on Saturday.
The new political party will not do anything based on religion, rather it will do only politics in participation of all communities, Monju said at the press conference.
Five committees have already been formed to launch the new party, he said adding that the committees have already started their works.
Earlier on February 15, Jamaat assistant secretary general Barrister Abdur Razzaq sent his resignation letter from the UK to the party Ameer saying that the party have failed to apologise for its anti-liberation war role in 1971 and reform the organistion based on reality.
On February 16, Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami expelled Monju from the party for violating its discipline and engaging in anti-organisational activities.
