The BNP's standing committee started a meeting Monday evening to set the next course of action to protest the disappearance of its leader M Ilias Ali.
Ilias, a former lawmaker and BNP's organising secretary (Sylhet Division), and his driver went missing around midnight of April 17.
The meeting of the party’s highest decision making body began around 8:50pm with BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia in the chair at her Gulshan office. The meeting was still going on at 10:00pm when the report was filed.
The main opposition BNP and its allies have already called hartal for Tuesday after enforcing general strike on Sunday and Monday.
They also held protest rallies in front of BNP's Nayapaltan central office demanding 'forced disappearance' of the two.
The BNP claimed that government agencies had picked up Ilias and his driver.
On Wednesday, police found Ilias's private car abandoned near his Banani residence in the capital and that day BNP called a dawn-to-dusk hartal for Sunday.
