Adviser Nahid favours political consensus for decision on President
A decision regarding President Mohammed Shahabuddin can be reached through political discussion and national unity, rather than following legal or constitutional means, said Nahid Islam, Adviser on Posts, Telecommunications, and Information Technology, on Wednesday.
The adviser also called for everyone to remain calm and be aware about this issue.
He said this in response to a question while talking to reporters at the Secretariat on Wednesday.
He further stated, "We have received the message from the people, and the interim government is consulting all stakeholders. A decision may be forthcoming after these discussions."

"Whether the president stays in office is not a legal or constitutional matter at this time; it is a political decision," he stated.
"In making the decision regarding the president, we are prioritising stability, security, and discipline within the state," he added.
"There is no need for demonstrations in front of Bangabhaban or elsewhere. We have heard the people's message, and a decision must be reached through discussion," he emphasized.
Nahid also mentioned that there are conspiracies both at home and abroad, urging student protesters to remain vigilant and calm in this context.

In response to another question, the adviser stated, "The students have issued an ultimatum. We are currently engaged in discussions on our end, though there is no specific timeline for this process. We will continue our efforts and once we reach a logical decision, we will inform everyone.”
Nahid stressed that the decision must prioritize the state and its citizens.
