BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia has convened a meeting of her party’s standing committee to outline party course of action if she is convicted and landed in jail.
The meeting of the BNP policy-making body is scheduled to begin around 8.30pm at the BNP chairperson’s Gulshan office, party senior joint secretary general Ruhul Kabir Rizvi said at a press conference on Sunday.
