The Chandpur District unit of the Bangladesh Muktijoddha Sangsad has expelled Engineer Jasim Uddin, convener of the Matlab South Upazila branch, from his position. The decision was made at an emergency meeting held on the night of May 18, 2026, following allegations that he joined the political party Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami.

According to the source, the action was taken under Article 29(ঙ) of the organization’s constitution. The meeting was convened under the telephone instruction of Central Command Council convener Md. Naeem Jahangir and with the approval of Chandpur District convener Bir Muktijoddha Shahidul Alam Rob. The session was chaired by joint convener Bir Muktijoddha Sirajul Islam Borkandaz and conducted by member secretary Bir Muktijoddha Mujibur Rahman, with all district members present.

A letter regarding the expulsion decision has been sent to the Central Command Council. The move came two days after Jasim Uddin formally joined Jamaat-e-Islami at a local event organized by the party on May 16 in Matlab South.
