The memorandum was submitted to Housing and Public Works Adviser Adilur Rahman Khan and Secretary Nazrul Islam by AB Party Shadow Affairs Editor Barrister Abbas Islam. Also present were the party’s Joint Editor for Power, Energy and Technology and Shadow Committee member Architect Md Abul Kalam Mahmud Sarkar (Tanvir), International Affairs Committee member Hazra Mehjabin, and Assistant Publicity Editor Ripon Mahmud. Later, the AB Party delegation held a detailed discussion with the adviser and the secretary on the proposals.
