Shammi Akter from Goshapara village in Chunarughat, Habiganj, has been nominated for a second term as a Member of Parliament under the BNP’s reserved women’s seat list announced on Monday. Her name appears among 36 candidates selected by the party. Shammi currently serves as a member of the BNP’s media cell, assistant secretary for local government affairs in the central committee, and joint convener of the Habiganj district BNP.
Family sources said Shammi’s political journey began during her student life at Dhaka University, inspired by the ideals of former president Ziaur Rahman and the leadership of Khaleda Zia. Known for her active role in street movements, she earned the nickname “Agnikonna” for her courage. In 2008, at age 33, she first entered Parliament through a reserved seat, gaining attention for her strong and logical speeches.
Local BNP leaders described her new nomination as recognition of her dedication and a matter of pride for Chunarughat and Habiganj residents. Shammi said the nomination is both an honor and a responsibility, pledging lifelong commitment to her party’s ideals.
