A person can be Prime Minister for 10 years in his life and political parties have agreed to form an independent Police Commission.
On Sunday (July 27), the Vice President of the Commission, Ali Riaz, made this known on the 19th day of the ongoing second phase of dialogue at the Foreign Service Academy in the capital.
He said, we had agreed on one thing, but it was not mentioned. That is, the Prime Minister will hold office for a term of 10 years. The Prime Minister’s term will be mentioned in the charter as 10 years. At this time, he raised a question, have we agreed on this? Salahuddin Ahmed gave a condition in this regard, is that still there?
Later, BNP Standing Committee member Salahuddin Ahmed said, we once said that no person will remain in the post of Prime Minister for more than 10 years. I said that if there is an appointment committee in the constitution and statutory institutions, we will not accept the matter. We will add the provisions related to the appointment of the Election Commission to the constitution based on the opinion of this House. If there is a discussion on issues beyond this, our condition will remain in place. I hope you will consider it. Now you can make an announcement about 10 years-this is our proposal.
