A new political platform called "Jatiyatabadi Samamona Jote", involving 11 parties of the BNP-led 20-party alliance, was formally launched yesterday.
Fariduzzaman Farhad, chairman of the National People's Party (NPP) and coordinator of the new alliance, made the announcement at the Jatiya Press Club.
"We have united to form a nationalist like-minded alliance today [Wednesday]. The name of this alliance is Jatiyatabadi Samamona Jote."
He said the alliance has been formed to strengthen the simultaneous anti-government movement, build a Bangladesh with the people's aspirations in mind, and resolve the country's political crisis.
The parties in the new platform are National People's Party-NPP; Jagpa (Khandkar Lutfur); Democratic League (DL); Bangladesh NAP; Bikalpa Dhara (Nurul Amin); Samyabadi Dal; Gono Dal; NAP-Bhasani; Islami Oikya Jote; People's League and Bangladesh Minority Janata Party.
Farhad said the alliance will join the simultaneous movement, extending support to the BNP's 10-point demand and the 27-point structural reform unveiled to repair the structure of the state.
The development comes just four days after an alliance was launched with 12 parties of the 20-party alliance on December 22.
The 12 parties included Jatiya Party (Kazi Zafar); Kalyan Party; Labour Party; Jatiya Dal; Bangladesh LDP; Jatiya Democratic Party-JAGPA (Tasmia Pradhan); NDP; LDP (Salim); Muslim League; Jamiat-e-Ulamae Islam; Islami Oikya Jote; Islamic Party and Samyabadi Dal.
Islami Oikyajote and Samyabadi Dal are part of both the new alliances.
Farhad, however, said, "Samyabadi Dal and Islami Oikya Jote are with us. They are now no longer in any other alliance."
BNP Standing Committee Member Khandaker Mosharraf Hossain and Chairperson's Advisory Council Member Amanullah Aman were present at the press conference.
