The Election Inquiry and Judicial Committee has issued show-cause notices to two candidates from Jamaat-e-Islami and the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) for alleged violations of the electoral code of conduct in Rangpur-1 constituency ahead of the 13th National Parliamentary Election. The notices, signed by committee chairman and Rangpur Land Survey Tribunal judge Md. Samiul Alam, cite that Jamaat candidate Md. Raihan Siraji hung festoons on trees, breaching Rule 7(g) of the 2025 electoral code, while BNP candidate Md. Mokarram Hossain Sujon allegedly pasted leaflets and posters near the Rangpur Metro Police Lines, violating Rule 7(a).
The committee stated that such activities could disrupt a fair and neutral election environment and that violating the code is a punishable offense. Both candidates have been instructed to appear in person at the Rangpur Land Survey Tribunal on February 9, 2026, to submit written explanations. Law enforcement officials confirmed that the notices are being delivered and that security forces remain alert to enforce the code.
Committee chairman Samiul Alam emphasized that the electoral code applies equally to all and reaffirmed the committee’s firm stance on ensuring a fair election process.
