Khartoum(ANN)-The Declaration of Freedom and Change (DFC), an alliance of opposition groups, presented its list of demands to Sudan’s ruling Military Transitional Council (MTC) on Thursday, Anadolu Agency reports.

The DFC has continued to push the MTC to relinquish power to a civilian government — a demand that the military council appears reluctant to meet.

Sudan has remained in political turmoil since the army ousted President Omar al-Bashir last month following months of popular protests against his 30-year rule.

The MTC is now overseeing a two-year “transitional period” during which it has pledged to hold free presidential elections.

Thousands of demonstrators, however, have remained in the streets of capital Khartoum to demand that the MTC swiftly surrender authority to a civilian administration
