The NLD also repeated its call for the military to free Aung San Suu Kyi and her deputy Tin Oo, and said the junta should allow senior party members to meet them while they are in detention.
"The authorities should allow these two leaders and other central executive committee members to meet so they can discuss freely," the party said in a statement.
Nobel Peace Prize winner Aung San Suu Kyi has spent 12 of the past 18 years under house arrest at her rambling lakeside home in Yangon, deprived of almost all contact with the outside world.
Amid stiff international pressure on the regime following its deadly crackdown on pro-democracy protests in September, the junta appointed Labour Minister Aung Kyi to coordinate official contacts with her.
The two have met four times since the military opened fire on peaceful protesters in the streets of Yangon, leaving at least 31 dead and 74 missing, according to a UN report.
