The party has taken up plans to reorganise its ward, upazila and district units across the country by holding council at all levels and complete preparations for holding the centra) council at the same time, party insiders said.
Party leaders said BNP Secretary General Khandaker Delwar Hossain might be appointed convener of the committee on preparation for the council while standing committee member Shamsul Islam might lead the subcommittee on international affairs.
They said party standing committee member Moudud Ahmed and Vice President MK Anwar might lead another sub-committee for amending the party constitution in line with the Representation of People Order.
Party's Joint Secretary General Nazrul Islam Khan and Office Secretary Rizvi Ahmed will be in charge of the council management committee while Sadeque Hossain Khoka will lead the subcommittee on refreshment, insiders said.

BNP formed convening committees for its districts units on June 9 and asked all committees to complete the reorganising process through holding local councils from ward to district level by November 15.
The party will go for inclusion of new members and launch a programme for renewal of party membership from August 16. The party chairperson is expected to inaugurate the programme.
Nazrul Islam Khan said it is mandatory for all current members including the chairperson and secretary general to renew their membership.
