Chief Adviser's Press Secretary Shafiqul Alam has said the interim government has no involvement in the Proclamation of the July Revolution, to be announced by the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement on Tuesday.
The government views it as a "private initiative," Shafiqul Alam told journalists during a press briefing in front of the State Guest House Jamuna on Sunday.
He said: " We view it as a private initiative. The government has no involvement in it. Those who support it are supporting it as a private initiative."
At 3pm on the last day of the year, the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement is scheduled to announce its Proclamation of the July Revolution at the Central Shaheed Minar in Dhaka.
Leaders of the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement spoke at a press conference at their central office in Banglamotor earlier in the day.
Hasnat Abdullah, convenor of the movement, said: "We want the Mujibist constitution to be declared dead. From the place where the one-point movement was declared, the Mujibist 1972 constitution will be buried. We expect that in the Proclamation of the July Revolution, the Nazi-like Awami League will be declared irrelevant in Bangladesh."
Hasnat said he believes that the proclamation should have come on August 5, the day Sheikh Hasina fled the country.
He added that due to the delay, forces supporting fascism in the media, intellectual circles, and other areas are conspiring.
They are questioning its legitimacy, standing on the blood of more than 2,000 martyrs and over 20,000 injured, Hasnat said.
Meanwhile, a key coordinator of the movement and currently the chief organizer of the Jatiya Nagorik Committee, Sarjis Alam, said a draft of the declaration has been prepared.
He said: "In this revolution, people from various political parties, religions, and age groups directly participated, and opinions from various places are being taken. It is being revised, amended, and expanded."
