The Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) has raised objections over the postal ballots sent by the Election Commission for expatriate Bangladeshi voters. On Tuesday, a BNP delegation led by Standing Committee member Nazrul Islam Khan met with the Chief Election Commissioner to express concerns that the ballots intentionally placed certain political parties’ names and symbols on the first line while positioning BNP’s name and symbol in the middle, making it less visible when folded.
Nazrul Islam Khan stated that the delegation discussed the issue with the commission, which appeared unaware of the matter. He said the commission claimed the order was based on alphabetical arrangement, but BNP believes it was done deliberately. The party requested changes and corrections to the postal ballots. Khan also drew attention to a viral video allegedly showing individuals in Bahrain handling multiple postal ballots, urging legal action against those involved.
According to the report, more than 1.5 million voters, including expatriates, have registered through the “Postal Vote BD” app to cast their votes via postal ballots.
