Office for the Cooperation of the People with the President (Persian: دفتر هماهنگی همکاریهای مردم با رئیسجمهور) was a political organization in Iran that was closely associated to then-President Abolhassan Banisadr.[4]
Since Banisadr was skeptical of partisan activities in Iran, he did not like the idea of creating a party.[1] However, despite using the name "office", the organization "was created out of necessity to fulfill some, if not all, of the functions of a political party".[2] It had branches all over the country.[4]
Parliamentary election and presence
OCPP issued an electoral list for the 1980 Iranian legislative election,[4] that had candidates shared with the Freedom Movement, the National Front and the People's Mujahedin.[5] The exclusive candidates of OCPP included Fathollah Banisadr (his brother), Mohammad Moballeghi-Eslami (Banisadr's choice for Channel 2) and Mohammad Ja'fari (editor-in-chief of Enghelabe Eslami).[1] Ahmad Salamatian and Ahmad Ghazanfarpour were notable members elected to the parliament under banner of the organization.[4]
According to Houchang Chehabi, the group formed a minority in the parliament.[4] Siavush Randjbar-Daemi estimates that they were less than a dozen deputies, however initially some forty independents were also "ostensibly sympathetic to Banisadr".[1]
