The High Court has issued a rule asking why the cancellation of Monira Sharmin’s nomination for a reserved women’s seat in the 13th National Parliament should not be declared illegal. The rule was issued on Wednesday, May 6, 2026, by a bench led by Justice Razik Al Jalil. Monira Sharmin is the joint convener of the National Citizens Party (NCP) and a candidate from the 11-party alliance. Senior lawyers including Barrister Mostafizur Rahman Khan, Advocate Mohammad Hossain Lipu, and Advocate Mujahidul Islam Shaheen represented the petitioner in court.
Earlier, on May 4, another High Court bench comprising Justice Ahmed Sohel and Justice Fatema Anwar had expressed its inability to hear the writ petition challenging the legality of the cancellation of Monira Sharmin’s nomination. The current bench’s decision to issue a rule marks a new development in the legal process surrounding her candidacy.
Further proceedings will depend on the High Court’s subsequent hearing and responses to the issued rule.
