Jatiya Sangsad (JS) is set to go into session on Sunday.



Jatiya Sangsad (JS) is set to go into session on Sunday (October 22), which is likely to be the last session of the current parliament ahead of the next general election.

The session will begin at 4:00pm.

On October 5, President Mohammed Shahabuddin summoned the 25th session of the 11th parliament, exercising the power bestowed upon him as per the Clause (1) of Article 72 of the constitution.

On September 14, the 24th session of the current parliament was prorogued after nine sittings.

The 11th Parliament is going to fulfil its five-year term on January 29, 2024, as it went into the first session on January 30, 2019.

So, the next general election will have to be held within 90 days before January 29, 2024, in the case of the dissolution of Parliament by reason of the expiration of its term, as per article 123 of the Constitution.
