Opposition MPs Discuss Ganges Treaty Renewal, Deteriorating Law and Order, and Matarbari Project Transparency
The national parliament complex in Dhaka.

Members of Parliament from the opposition held a high-level meeting on Tuesday, November 10, 2026, at the Jatiya Sangsad Bhaban in Dhaka to address pressing national crises, including the renewal of the Ganges Water Treaty, a sharp decline in public law and order, unprecedented irregularities in fertilizer dealer appointments, and alleged government negligence in prosecuting the July massacre.

The meeting took place in the office of the Deputy Leader of the Opposition under the chairmanship of Opposition Leader Dr. Shafiqur Rahman, with Opposition Chief Whip Md. Nahid Islam and other opposition lawmakers in attendance.

Discussions heavily centered on Prime Minister Tarique Rahman’s recent Japan tour and the Matarbari project agreement, with lawmakers demanding complete public transparency regarding the deal. Dr. Shafiqur Rahman expressed deep concern that hidden clauses in Japanese agreements might be used to grant foreign corridors, while regional interference aims to destabilize Bangladesh’s primary export engine—the readymade garments (RMG) industry. He asserted that the government has utterly failed to manage national law and order.

Opposition Chief Whip Md. Nahid Islam echoed these concerns, stating that administrative weaknesses have emboldened terrorist factions to orchestrate secret attacks and nationwide anarchy, prompting an urgent call for unified resistance both inside and outside parliament.
