Hasina meets grassroots leaders from June

Hasina will discuss with them prevailing political situation and give them future directives, party sources said, adding that as the AL has a plan to paralyse the capital on June 11, the AL chief will also ask them to mobilise people to lay siege to the capital in a bid to press home the demand for electoral reforms.

The AL chief was originally scheduled to exchange views with the grassroots level leaders in January, but it was delayed due to 14-party opposition combine's anti-government agitation in the capital.

According to revised programme, Hasina will meet leaders of different districts under Dhaka division from June 3 to 8.

The series meetings will be held at the party's Dhanmondi office in the city from 9:00am to 12:00 noon on scheduled dates.

Leaders of Manikganj, Munshiganj and Narayanganj districts will meet Hasina on June 3, leaders of Tangail, Gazipur and Narshingdi districts on June 4, leaders of Netrokona, Jamalpur and Sherpur districts on June 5, leaders of Mymensingh and Kishoreganj districts on June 6 and leaders of Faridpur, Rajbari, Shariatpur, Madaripur and Gopalganj districts on June 8.

After the Dhaka siege programme, the AL chief will meet the leaders of other divisions, sources said.

AL General Secretary Abdul Jalil has requested all district presidents and general secretaries to attend the meetings.
