Local Government Adviser Asif Mahmud Sajib Bhuiyan has announced an urgent press conference amid growing speculation that he may contest in Bangladesh’s upcoming 13th national parliamentary election. The announcement comes as the Election Commission prepares to meet the President to finalize the election schedule. Mahmud, a key figure in the July student uprising that led to the fall of the Awami League government, currently serves as adviser to the Local Government and Youth and Sports ministries.
Public relations officials confirmed that the briefing will address current political issues, though no indication has been given regarding Mahmud’s resignation or candidacy. Previously, Mahmud stated his intention to run as an independent candidate from a Dhaka constituency, having transferred his voter registration from Comilla-3 to Dhaka. Election Commissioner Md. Anwarul Islam has clarified that advisers cannot contest while holding office.
The press conference is expected to clarify Mahmud’s political stance and potential resignation timeline, as the newly formed National Citizens Party prepares to release its candidate list on Wednesday.
