BNP changes three Chattogram constituency candidates

The Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) has revised its list of candidates for three constituencies in Chattogram district ahead of the upcoming 13^th parliamentary election.

According to party sources, the BNP has nominated Mohammad Aslam Chowdhury for Chattogram-4, Said Al Noman for Chattogram-10, and Amir Khasru Mahmud Chowdhury for Chattogram-11.

Earlier, on November 3rd, BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir had announced Kazi Mohammad Salauddin, former joint convener of the BNP’s Chattogram North district unit, as the party’s candidate for Chattogram-4. However, the party has now selected Mohammad Aslam Chowdhury, a member of the BNP chairperson’s advisory council, to contest the seat in what it described as the final phase of electoral preparation.

In a further adjustment, Amir Khasru Mahmud Chowdhury, a member of the BNP’s standing committee, has been shifted from Chattogram-10 to Chattogram-11. The party had previously left the Chattogram-11 seat vacant when the initial candidate list was announced.

Meanwhile, Said Al Noman, president of the Bangladesh Nationalist Jute Workers’ Party, has been nominated as the BNP candidate for Chattogram-10.

The changes reflect ongoing strategic decisions by the party as it prepares for the national polls.
