The nomination paper of BNP candidate Engineer Ishraq Hossain for the Dhaka-6 constituency has been declared valid by the district commissioner and returning officer. The announcement was made at noon on Saturday, confirming his eligibility to contest in the upcoming election.

Earlier, on December 28 of the previous year, Ishraq Hossain submitted his nomination papers at the office of the Dhaka Divisional Commissioner, Shafor Uddin Ahmed Chowdhury, located in Segunbagicha, Dhaka. Following the submission, Ishraq stated that the electoral environment was very good so far and expressed hope that the election would be held peacefully, with all political parties participating democratically.

The validation of Ishraq’s nomination clears the way for him to officially campaign as the BNP candidate in Dhaka-6, as the election process continues under the supervision of the returning officer.
