Shafiqul Alam, press secretary to the chief adviser, has said that the government is working to announce the July Proclamation before August 5. A new committee, headed by Planning Adviser Dr Wahiduddin Mahmud, has been formed to prepare the proclamation.
He shared the information while briefing journalists at the Foreign Service Academy on Thursday.
