July Oikya submitted a memorandum to the Election Commission Secretariat on Tuesday afternoon demanding the cancellation of nominations of candidates from the Jatiya Party, the 14-Party Alliance, and the NDF coalition. The memorandum was handed to Additional Secretary M Ali Newaz at 1:30 p.m. by leaders of the organization, who also called for the recovery of illegal weapons and the disqualification of those they accused of involvement in past violence.

In the memorandum, July Oikya alleged that the Awami League-led 14-Party government carried out mass killings during the 2024 uprising, claiming over 1,400 lives. The group argued that individuals and parties linked to those events, including the Jatiya Party led by G.M. Quader, should not be allowed to contest the upcoming 13th National Parliamentary Election. They further alleged that remnants of authoritarian elements remain within the administration, undermining prospects for a fair election.

The memorandum also expressed concern that the state might attempt “election engineering” to favor a particular party. July Oikya urged the Election Commission to take steps to restore public trust and ensure a neutral electoral environment.
