The BNP yesterday fixed Bashundhara Convention Centre as the venue for its upcoming national council on March 19.
In a meeting of the party’s Standing Committee, chaired by Chairperson Khaleda Zia at her Gulshan office, 11 sub-committees were also formed to organise the national council.
BNP sources said the party’s Adviser TH Khan would act as the election commissioner for the council; if he cannot take on the role, the responsibility would be carried out by former speaker Jamiruddin Sircar.
The party also decided that it would participate in the union parishad elections.
