The opposition Maldivian Democratic Party (MDP) has announced plans to rally near the Parliament House on Thursday, the day of the year's Parliament opening session.
In a statement on their official X account, the MDP called on supporters to gather outside the parliament to listen to the President's annual address.
The parliamentary session will begin with President Dr. Mohamed Muizzu delivering the Presidential Statement, a tradition where the head of state outlines the government's priorities and key initiatives for the year.
The MDP's rally follows increasing political tension and serves as an attempt to voice public concerns and opposition sentiments during the high-profile event.
According to parliamentary records, 73 percent of the legislative work planned during the third session last year has been completed. The President's address is expected to outline further legislative and developmental priorities for the current year.
Authorities are anticipated to implement heightened security measures around the Parliament House ahead of the opening session.
