In lieu with this, the Congress Legislative Party (CLP) meeting was held on Tuesday. In the meeting, discussions were held on what comments will be put up by the legislators at the assembly session tomorrow.

Speaking about the meeting, Congress MLA Rakibul Hussain said, “Today we discussed about the two congress MLAs who have left the party. The Congress leaders who had left the party now say that they are true Congressmen. They now identify themselves as Congressmen as they have the fear of losing the elections.”
