The 11-party electoral alliance on Sunday announced its first set of decisions following the 13th national parliamentary election, declaring that the coalition will function as a united bloc both inside and outside parliament.
The decisions were disclosed at a press conference by Jamaat-e-Islami Assistant Secretary General AHM Hamidur Rahman Azad, following a meeting of the alliance’s liaison committee.
Azad said the liaison committee convened in line with directives from a top-level meeting of the alliance leaders held the previous day, attended by Shafiqur Rahman, Allama Mamunul Haque, and other senior figures.
“Our 11-party electoral unity will continue as an 11-party alliance in parliament and beyond. Since we contested the election jointly, we will perform our parliamentary role collectively,” Azad said, adding that the alliance would adopt coordinated positions on national, public, and state interests in the current political context.
The alliance also expressed concern over post-election violence in various areas, alleging attacks on activists and women supporters. It urged the authorities and the majority party to exercise restraint and uphold democratic norms.
Azad said the alliance leaders would meet the Election Commission on Monday at 11:30 am to present detailed complaints regarding more than 30 constituencies. He warned that if violence continues and grievances remain unaddressed, the alliance may announce political programmes after further consultations.
