According to Bangladesh Sangbad Sangstha, the submission event was attended by notable figures from Islami Andolan Bangladesh, including presidium member Professor Ali Akan, joint secretary general Engineer Ashraful Alam, and assistant secretary general Ahmed Abdul Kaium, among others. The commission has identified crucial recommendations from the reports of five reform commissions, focusing on the constitution, public administration, electoral system, judiciary, and the Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC).
