He, however, said the present committee will remain in force and No 1 vice-president Al Nahean Khan Joy and No 1 joint secretary Lekhak Bhattacharjee were given the charge of BCL president and general secretary respectively.
He also said the national council of the ruling party will be held on 20-21 December next.
