In the haor areas of Sunamganj, the 13th National Parliamentary Election campaign has lost its usual festive atmosphere due to a ban on posters. Previously, villages, markets, and streets would be covered with campaign posters, creating a celebratory mood despite environmental harm. This year, the Election Commission has prohibited the use of posters, banners, and non-biodegradable materials such as polythene and plastic, with the campaign period running from January 21 to February 10.
Residents in remote villages have expressed concern that without posters, low-income and elderly voters lacking smartphones are unable to access digital campaign information. Voters said they used to identify candidates through posters, but now struggle to do so. However, many citizens and environmentalists welcomed the cleaner surroundings, noting that walls, roads, and markets remain tidy.
Environmental expert Saiful Alam Chowdhury described the poster-free campaign as a timely step for environmental protection, though he acknowledged that the election’s festive spirit has diminished compared to previous years.
