Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) on Saturday demanded a specific election roadmap to hold the national election by December this year, stressing that they discussed three specific issues - reform efforts, justice process and election. 

BNP Standing Committee Member Dr Khandaker Mosharraf Hossain briefed reporters after their meeting with Chief Adviser Prof Muhammad Yunus at his official residence Jamuna in Dhaka.

The party also  demanded the dismissal of Local Government Adviser Asif Mahmud Shojib Bhuiyan, Information Adviser Mahfuj Alam, and National Security Adviser Khalilur Rahman.
