The Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) has decided not to field candidates in two constituencies—Patuakhali-03 and Jhenaidah-04—reserved for Gono Odhikar Parishad leaders Nurul Haque Nur and Rashed Khan. The announcement was confirmed by BNP’s media coordinator Abu Hanif on Wednesday, who said the decision honors the joint movement against authoritarianism led by both parties.
Hanif clarified that this arrangement should not be interpreted as an electoral alliance, as BNP will contest all other seats except the one held by its chairperson, Begum Khaleda Zia. Nur and Rashed will contest under their party’s symbol, the truck, while BNP continues its broader electoral campaign. The Gono Odhikar Parishad expressed gratitude to BNP’s acting chairman Tarique Rahman for the gesture.
The move signals a limited tactical understanding between opposition groups ahead of the national polls, reflecting BNP’s attempt to maintain opposition unity without forming a formal coalition. Political observers view this as a symbolic gesture to strengthen anti-government coordination.
