In the 13th National Parliamentary Election, 20 candidates including former state minister Alamgir Kabir are set to lose their deposits in Naogaon district. A total of 32 candidates, 27 from political parties and 5 independents, contested across six constituencies. According to the Election Commission’s rule, any candidate receiving less than one-eighth of the total votes cast in their constituency forfeits their deposit. Each candidate had deposited 50,000 taka with the commission before the election.
The official results announced from the returning officer’s office after Thursday’s voting show that several candidates, including former MPs and party nominees, failed to secure the required 8 percent of votes in their respective constituencies. In Naogaon-1, three of five candidates lost their deposits, while in Naogaon-3, six of eight candidates failed to retain theirs. Similar outcomes were reported in Naogaon-2, 4, 5, and 6 constituencies.
The district election officer confirmed that the forfeiture process will follow the Election Commission’s regulations. Across the six constituencies, Naogaon had 2,329,592 registered voters, with a turnout of 75.27 percent.
