The Election Commission (EC) has announced the schedule for the Bogura-6 by-election and the Sherpur-3 parliamentary election, which had been postponed earlier due to a candidate’s death. According to the schedule, voting in both constituencies will take place on April 9. The announcement was made by EC Senior Secretary Akhtar Ahmed at a press conference held at the Election Building in Agargaon on Tuesday afternoon.
As per the schedule, the deadline for submitting nomination papers is March 2, scrutiny will be held on March 5, and the last date for withdrawal is March 14. The Sherpur-3 seat no longer requires a referendum since the “yes” vote won in the February 12 national election. BNP Chairperson and Prime Minister Tarique Rahman, who was elected from two constituencies, vacated the Bogura-6 seat, prompting the by-election.
The Sherpur-3 election was earlier suspended after Jamaat candidate Nuruzzaman Badal died on February 3 due to kidney disease. Under the Representation of the People Order, valid candidates from that constituency will not need to resubmit nomination papers.
