In Kurigram, the returning officer has declared the nomination papers of two candidates invalid for the upcoming 13th National Parliamentary Election. The decision was announced on Thursday, December 1, after the first day of the nomination scrutiny process. The disqualified candidates are Jatiya Party’s former Member of Parliament Ponir Uddin Ahmed, accused of concealing case information in his affidavit, and Bangladesh National Party’s candidate Atikur Rahman, whose affidavit was found incomplete. According to the returning officer’s office, all six candidates in Kurigram-1 constituency were declared valid, while in Kurigram-2, seven out of nine candidates, including those from BNP, Jamaat, Islami Andolon, and NCP, were approved. Ponir Uddin Ahmed’s nomination was canceled for not disclosing a recent case filed against him, and Atikur Rahman’s was rejected for missing information in his affidavit. Both candidates are eligible to appeal the decision between January 5 and January 11. Ponir Uddin Ahmed stated he was unaware of the case filed in Dhaka’s Mirpur and intends to appeal the decision.
