Following the announcement of the 13th parliamentary election schedule, Thakurgaon has become one of northern Bangladesh’s most discussed constituencies due to the absence of the Awami League. Candidates from the BNP, Jamaat-e-Islami, and several smaller parties are campaigning actively, with particular focus on attracting young and minority voters.
In Thakurgaon-1, BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir is the most prominent candidate, while Jamaat’s Maulana Delwar Hossain is promising a corruption-free society. The seat, once dominated by the Awami League, now features 480,609 voters, including about 119,000 minorities and 192,567 new voters, making youth and Hindu voters decisive. In Thakurgaon-2, BNP’s Dr. Abdus Salam, Jamaat’s Maulana Abdul Hakim, and Ganadhikar Parishad’s Faruk Hasan are leading an intense race. Thakurgaon-3 has turned into a three-way contest among BNP’s Zahidur Rahman, Jamaat’s Mizanur Rahman, and Jatiya Party’s Hafizuddin Ahmed.
Observers note that the absence of the Awami League has reshaped local political dynamics, with youth and minority participation expected to significantly influence the final outcome.
