Neutral summary
The BNP announced a seven-day programme for National Revolution and Solidarity Day on 7 November, including rallies nationwide, flag hoisting at party offices at 6am, and tributes at the graves of Ziaur Rahman and Khaleda Zia at 11am. Acting Secretary General Ruhul Kabir Rizvi announced the programme on Monday (26 October) at the party's Nayapaltan headquarters in Dhaka after a joint meeting. Rizvi said the spirit of 7 November influenced the July movement and that the 5 August fall of fascism reopened the path of democracy. He warned that if any undemocratic force tried to establish authority over the people, the spirit of the day would inspire unity. A discussion meeting is tentatively set for 6 November, pending the party chairman's approval. Rizvi also said anyone creating disorder would face action under the law.
Where accounts differ. Jamuna Television alone reports Rizvi's warning that action would be taken under the law against anyone creating disorder, while Manobkantha and Dhaka Times do not mention it.

About this method
Method. Bias types follow the Table of Media Bias Elements and the Media Bias Taxonomy (both CC BY 4.0). The impartiality rules follow the BBC Editorial Guidelines and the Ofcom Broadcasting Code. This analysis was made by claude-opus-5-5 on rubric 1.0.0. The score is calculated from the seven answers, never generated.
What this is not. No outlet gets a standing bias rating, and there is no left/right axis, because that axis does not describe Bangladeshi politics. Each analysis covers one article about one event. Members' analytics count how each outlet's headlines were labelled over a chosen period, with the number of headlines behind every share, and also show the average score of an outlet's scored articles: that average describes those articles (mostly each story's lead), not the outlet, and outlets are never ranked by it or by any share.
Known limits. Headlines are grouped into stories automatically, so an unrelated headline sometimes slips in; it is shown faded rather than hidden. Where outlets carry the same wire copy, the comparison has little to show. Human annotators agree on bias in Bangla news only moderately (κ = 0.574 at best), which limits what any automated score can claim.
