Hafiz said BNP is a major political party having roots among the jrjpsses. "Even if the curreqi move does not succeed, necessity in the greater interest of the party and the nation will compel us to unite before the election," he said.
BNP will contest the polls unitedly under the leadership of Chairperson Khaleda Zia, he added.
Replying to a question, Hafiz said their reform proposals will be placed before the next council session. He is hopeful of holding the council with Khaleda Zia in the chair.
"There had been no direction for running the party in absence of the chairperson. That is why we had proposed for reforms in the party, said Hafiz.

Hafiz viewed that a national government can be formed in consultation with political parties if the election is delayed for unforeseen circumstances. "But we will always prefer elected government."
