ASHIK ABDULLAH APU

After the official launch of their party National Citizen Party, the young leaders who were at the forefront of the July uprising are now focusing on finalising the party’s organogram, slogan, declaration and charter.

The work to finalise the key elements of the party is underway and they expect to announce those soon, The Daily Star has learnt from senior leaders of the party.

Although almost every leader of the party who delivered speeches at the event concluded their speeches with “Inquilab Zindabad” (Long Live the Revolution), the phrase has not been declared as the party’s official slogan yet.

Also, the NCP leaders emphasised that the party Convener Nahid Islam’s “introductory speech” is not the declaration of the party.

According to the NCP leaders, they are now looking for a location for its central office prioritising three places in the capital: Farmgate, Shahbagh and Paltan.

The party leaders have initial plans to form 17 wings, including ones for different professional and working-class people.
