The Election Commission (EC) is preparing to grant official registration to six new political parties, including the National Citizen’s Party (NCP) and the Bangladesh National League.

According to EC sources, a field-level verification of 22 parties has been completed. Following this process, the National Citizen’s Party, Bangladesh Aam Janagon Party, Bangladesh Nezame Islam Party, and Bangladesh National League are among the six parties recommended for final approval.

Files recommending their registration have already been submitted to the commission. After the relevant branch concluded its review and signed off on the documents last Sunday, the file is being placed before the commission today for approval.

The commission may amend or adjust the proposals before granting final consent. Once approved, a public notice will be issued, giving 15 days for objections and hearings. After resolving any disputes, symbols will be allocated, and the EC will publish the final gazette.
