Islami Andolan Bangladesh has decided not to field candidates in two parliamentary constituencies where Bangladesh Khelafat Majlis chief Maulana Mamunul Haque is contesting. The announcement was made on Monday by the party’s joint secretary general and spokesperson, Maulana Gazi Ataur Rahman, through an official statement. The decision applies to Dhaka-13 and Bagerhat-1 constituencies, where the party will instead support Mamunul Haque.

According to the statement, the move was taken as a gesture of respect for Mamunul Haque’s contributions and sacrifices in Islamic-oriented politics. Gazi Ataur Rahman emphasized that Islami Andolan Bangladesh is not considering forming alliances with any other political parties. In constituencies where the party does not have its own candidates, it will extend support to honest and qualified contenders based on principles and ideology.

The decision highlights the party’s approach to maintaining ideological consistency while showing solidarity with figures it deems significant in Islamic political movements.
