Chief Adviser Prof Muhammad Yunus will hold talks with the leaders of different political parties today as part of his ongoing dialogue with the stakeholders about state reforms and polls.

The chief adviser underwent a minor medical procedure at the Combined Military Hospital in Dhaka on Thursday. He resumed his duties on Friday morning, said the Chief Adviser’s press wing.

Fifteen political parties, including Gono Forum, Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), 12-party Alliance and Bangladesh Jatiya Party (BJP), will join the talks.

Earlier, the chief adviser sat in talks with five political parties, including Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP),        

Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami and Gono Odhikar Parishad, and three coalitions, including Ganatantra Mancha, on 5 October.

The interim government, led by Prof Yunus, took office on 8 August after the fall of the fascist Awami League government on 5 August in the face of a mass upsurge spearheaded by students.
