After a series of procedural and legal developments, Nusrat Tabassum, the Jamaat alliance candidate and joint convener of the NCP, has been declared elected unopposed to a reserved women’s seat in Bangladesh’s 13th National Parliament. The returning officer and Election Commission joint secretary Md Moin Uddin Khan confirmed the announcement on Monday, noting that the gazette publication process is underway.
Earlier, Nusrat’s nomination was initially rejected for being submitted 19 minutes after the deadline on April 21, following speculation that another alliance candidate, Monira Sharmin, might be disqualified due to her recent retirement from a state-owned bank. When Monira’s nomination was later canceled during scrutiny on April 23, Nusrat filed a writ petition with the High Court, which directed that her nomination be accepted and reviewed. On May 2, the returning officer declared her nomination valid and published her name as a qualified candidate on May 3.
With this decision, Nusrat becomes the 50th member elected to the reserved women’s seats, completing the allocation of 50 positions in the 13th Parliament.
