Dhaka, Apr 28 The special parliamentary committee on constitution amendment will sit with editors and eminent personalities and listen to their opinions.
Co-chairman of the committee Suranjit Sengupta on Thursday said proposals of the Communist Party of Bangladesh (CPB) would also be considered if those were submitted in writing.
He told journalists at the media centre of parliament that the talks with the editors and eminent personalities would be held on May 3-4.
"Invitation letters are being issued," he added.
About the CPB suggestions about the charter review presented at a news briefing in the morning, Suranjit said, "We could not invite CPB as we only called parties having representation in parliament."
"Their [CPB] opinions, however, can be very important as they are one of the oldest parties in the country. We will consider their recommendations if placed in writing," he said.
The committee held a series of meetings with lawyers, constitution experts and political parties for their opinions on Apr 24-25 and 27.
But opposition BNP did not turn up at the meeting while Jamaat-e-Islami was not invited.
