140 বাংলাদেশের স্বাধীনতা যুদ্ধ দলিল : চতুর্থ খন্ড শিরোনাম সূত্র তারিখ লন্ডনে ১১ই অক্টোবর অনুষ্ঠিত কনভেনশন এ্যাকশন কমিটির দলিলপত্র__১১ অক্টোবর, ১৯৭১ RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED AT THE LONDON MEETING OF BANGLADESH ACTIVISTS ON 11 OCTOBER AT CONWAY HALL, UNDER THE CHAIRMANSHIP OF S. M. AYUB 1. This meeting of the activists of the Bangladesh action committees, concerned with the healthy and democratic development of the Bangladesh movement, convened to discuss the forthcoming national convention of the action committees, hereby (a) takes note with appreciation of the decision of the Steering Committee, though belated to regularize the constitutional framework and activities of the action committees and offers the Steering Committee full support far the success of the convention; (b) endorses the decision of the Convention Committee to give direct representation to the local action committees. 2.

In the light of the criticism and amendments that will be received the Convention Committee should then prepare the final draft, which should farm the basis of deliberation at the first conference of the delegates of the action committees. 5. After the adoption of the constitution of the proposed central organisation of the action committees the document should be immediately circulated and all action committees should be asked to reconstitute themselves in accordance with the provisions of the constitution. The regularized action committees then should be invited to send their delegates, in accordance with the provisions in the constitution, to the national
