As Bangladesh’s upcoming national election nears, the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) is struggling with internal conflicts over preliminary nominations in several constituencies. While most BNP candidates are campaigning actively, disputes between nominated and excluded aspirants have led to protests, blockades, and counter-rallies across multiple districts. Party leaders are attempting to mediate from the central office in Gulshan, but grassroots divisions remain unresolved. According to insiders, at least 40 out of 236 constituencies are affected by nomination-related conflicts, weakening BNP’s organizational strength and providing political opportunities for rival groups, particularly Jamaat-e-Islami. The BNP’s standing committee has clarified that the announced list is provisional and subject to reassessment based on local reports. However, prolonged uncertainty and internal discord risk undermining the party’s election preparedness, as both nominated and excluded leaders continue to spend heavily on parallel campaigns.
