Following the Grand Rally organized by Awami League led opposition parties in Bangladesh , the ruling BNP has been sending green signals to the opposition to discuss their demands raised in the 14-party rally. The opposition parties have also welcomed the suggestion of a dialogue but they want that the invitation should be specific and official. The opposition is keen on discussing their demands on reforming the caretaker government and the electoral system. Although the government has softened its position , it is not clear whether the government would readily agree to the reformation of the caretaker government. A veteran journalist Ataus Samad analyzes the situation saying that agreeing to a dialogue is a good progress but there are miles to go yet.
