Its Presidium Member Obaidul Quader revealed the plan while addressing the party leaders at a meeting of the council decoration sub-committee in Dhaka on Saturday.

"Avoid personal posters, banners, festoons and billboards. Please focus on the party. We'll have to focus our future leader Sajeeb Wazed Joy," he said.

"The focus of the 20th National Council will be on the Father of the Nation Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and our future leader Sajeeb Wazed Joy," Quader, also the road transport and bridges minister, said.

He said rival BNP failed to challenge Awami League out in the open.

"But the secret enemies are out there. We'll have to be alert about them," he added.

The minister also warned the leaders and activists against any disorder during the council.
