AL moves to revamp grassroots

Hasan JahidTusher
Central leaders of ruling Awami League will start organisational tours across the country next month aiming to strengthen its grassroots level activities, which have apparently been to a standstill since the party assumed office on January 6.
The party will also hold council of a number of district units and form new committees during the tour.
Earlier on July 24. AL's national council re-elected Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina president and elected Syed Ashraful Islam general secre-tary. Later, the party announced the names of AL Central Working Committee (ALCWC) members.
But no meeting of the newly formed committee has been held so far. Party insiders

said an ALCWC meeting might be held in the next month to chalk out programmes and strategies for thedistrict tours.
During the tour the AL will also launch membership recruitment campaign across the country. Currently, the party does not have any database containing information of both its primary and full membership although the AL has more than 40,000 organisational units across die country.
"We will start the tour after the Eid to strengthen the organisational activities," said AL acting General Secretary Mahbubul Alam Hanif.
Talking to The Daily Star Hanif said the party would hold council in different districts where committees are expired.
He added extended meetings of different district units would be held to know about grassroots level activities and take measurers accordingly. Hanif, a special personal assistant to the prime minister, said this time they would start recruiting party's primary members.
Asked whether they would be able to collect primary membership and make database as the party failed after repeated attempts in the past, the AL leader said, "Hopefully we will be able to execute all our plans."
According to the AL constitution every citizen aged 18 or above with absolute faith in the aims and objectives of the party could be recruited as its member upon signing a specified form and paying the triennial subscription ofTk 5.
Hanif said formal membership procedure includes paying a token money. But he did not elaborate how they would collect membership.
Meanwhile, AL President Sheikh Hasina might announce names of party's different sub-committee members soon, AL leaders said adding that primarily a limited number of names would be announced for a subcommittee.
