Mohammad Selim Uddin, central executive member of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami and mayoral candidate for Dhaka North City Corporation, has accused the ruling party of creating division within the July unity by not pledging constitutional reform at the start of governance. He made the remarks on Friday while addressing the Unit Presidents’ Conference organized by the Comilla Metropolitan Jamaat.

Presided over by Comilla Metropolitan Ameer Kazi Din Mohammad and conducted by Secretary Mahbubur Rahman, the event was attended by several central and local Jamaat leaders. Selim Uddin said his party aims to build humane cities where no one remains unemployed or hungry, emphasizing welfare-oriented activities such as free medical services for thousands.

Earlier in the morning at a youth gathering in Uttara, he pledged that if elected, Jamaat would prioritize building a safe and corruption-free city within five years through modern surveillance systems. He also urged young people to engage in sports and avoid drugs and crime to contribute to national development.
