Dhaka, Aug. 13 -- Jatiya Party (JaPa) faction, led by GM Quader and Shameem Haidar Patwary, will meet Chief Election Commissioner AMM Nasir Uddin on Thursday to present its legal explanation opposing the recognition claim of the Anisul Islam Mahmud-Ruhul Amin Hawlader-led committee.

"We have already sent a letter to the Election Commission outlining our legal position against their claim for recognition. Tomorrow, we will meet the CEC and explain why this committee is illegal," Barrister Shamim Haider Patwary told UNB on Wednesday.

Patwary, who is the secretary general of GM Quader-led JaPa's faction, said a three-to-four-member delegation will meet the CEC in the afternoon. An EC official also confirmed the scheduled meeting.
