BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir is likely to announce the programmes at a press conference today.
Sources said the party will announce public rallies and road marches from Tuesday, which will continue till October 3.
The BNP has already decided in principle to hold road marches in Sylhet, Khulna, Barishal and Chattogram regions.
Three front and associate bodies of the party have already held road marches over the last two days in some northern districts where Fakhrul announced they won’t quit road marches until the government is deposed.
“Through these programmes, we want to complete the mass campaign aimed at making people aware about our programmes to ensure their participation,” he said.
After October 3, the party will announce fresh programmes mainly for Dhaka city and its periphery, which will continue until the announcement of the election schedule.
The BNP started its one-point movement on July 12, and has since been holding various programmes, including sit-ins at the entry points of Dhaka on July 29.
Party leaders said they want to hold peaceful programmes. But if the government does not pay heed to their demand, they will go for tougher programmes from October.
“From now on, we will hold nonstop programmes. There will be no pause in our movement till our goal is achieved,” said BNP Standing Committee Member Iqbal Hasan Mahmud Tuku.

The imported eggs are expected to reach the market within a week after opening a Letter of Credit (LC), which should happen in a couple of days, the ministry official said.
According to the commerce ministry, the country requires four crore eggs a day.
Notably, chicken eggs were sold for 26 rupees (Tk 34.29) per four pieces in Kolkata yesterday, or Tk 8.5 per piece.
On September 14, the government fixed the price of eggs at Tk 12 per piece at the retail level amid a price hike of the essential protein source.
While making the announcement, Commerce Minister Tipu Munshi said the government also decided to import eggs if the price on the local market does not come down.
The price cap on eggs barely made an impact on the runaway prices, as shopkeepers in the capital have not complied with the order.
At different kitchen markets across the capital, only a few shops were selling an egg for Tk 12, while most were demanding Tk 13.50.
