Aiming to strengthen party activities at grassroots level and to prepare the activists for new councils, scheduled to begin after Ramadan, ruling Awami League (AL) starts its tour programmes in 20 districts tomorrow.
A total of 18 teams led by senior party leaders will visit each district to inform activists at grassroots level about country's latest socio-economic and political situations as well as to give them necessary guidelines for preparation of the new councils.
The party organised similar programmes in March last year to resolve intra-party disputes and to bring coordination amongst the party rank and file.
AL Joint General Secretary Mahbubul Alam Hanif, speaking to The Daily Star yesterday, said, "The main target of our tour programmes is to focus on government's development activities carried out in the last two and a half years.
"It would also inform our grassroots level about the opposition party's anti-government propaganda and bring coordination among the party's rank and file and lawmakers.
"We want to hold councils of our grassroots level from ward unit to metropolitan units after Ramadan and, for this, we want to prepare the grassroots level through the tour programmes."
AL presidium members Matia Chowdhury will lead two teams in Pabna and Tangail districts, Yusuf Hossain Humayun will lead two teams in Barisal and Patuakhali, Sheikh Fazlul Karim Selim will lead one team in Comilla, Kazi Zafarullah will lead two teams in Jessore and Kushtia, Dr Mohiuddin Khan Alamgir will lead one team in Dinajpur, Obaidul Quader will lead two teams in Noakhali and Feni and Shahara Khatun will lead two teams in Chittagong and Cox's Bazar.
AL General Secretary Syed Ashraful Islam will lead a team in Mymensingh while party advisory council members Amir Hossain Amu will lead a team in Dhaka district, Suranjit Sengupta will lead two teams in Khulna and Faridpur, Abul Maal Abdul Muhith will lead a team in Sylhet, Dr Durgadas Bhattacharya will lead a team in Rajshahi, Dr Abdul Khaleque will lead a team in Bogra and central leader Mohammad Nasim will lead a team in Rangpur.
Ministers, state ministers, pro-AL city mayors, lawmakers, central leaders and all important party leaders will accompany each of the teams, says an AL press release, adding that the tour programmes must be completed by July 31.
