Engineer M.A. Matin Khan, former Assistant Personal Secretary (APS) to BNP Chairperson Begum Khaleda Zia, has collected nomination papers to contest as an independent candidate in the Comilla-2 (Titas-Homna) constituency. The papers were collected from the Upazila Executive Officer and Assistant Returning Officer Md. Shahidul Islam on Sunday afternoon, marking the start of the nomination process for Bangladesh’s 13th National Parliamentary Election.
Local BNP leaders, including former upazila chairmen and union-level party officials, were present during the submission, signaling continued grassroots interest in the upcoming polls. According to election officials, the nomination paper distribution will continue until December 29. Meanwhile, the BNP’s official candidate for the seat, Principal Selim Bhuiyan, hails from neighboring Meghna upazila, which has drawn attention to intra-party dynamics.
Observers note that Matin Khan’s independent candidacy could split the BNP vote in Comilla-2, potentially influencing the overall electoral outcome. The development underscores growing competition among local political figures ahead of the national election.
