The BNP-backed Nationalist Lawyers’ Panel, known as the Blue Panel, has won 13 out of 14 posts, including president and secretary, in the Supreme Court Bar Association election for the 2026–27 term. The results were announced early Thursday after vote counting concluded at the association’s auditorium. The Green Panel, supported by Jamaat-e-Islami, secured one member post. Voting took place on 13 and 14 May from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. with a one-hour break.
According to the declared results, A.M. Mahbub Uddin Khokon of the Blue Panel was elected president with 2,984 votes, defeating Abdul Baten of the Green Panel, who received 788 votes. Mohammad Ali of the Blue Panel won the secretary post with 2,582 votes, while his opponent A.K.M. Rezaul Karim Khandaker of the Green Panel got 786 votes. A total of 4,048 out of 11,097 registered voters cast their ballots.
This year’s election was marked by the absence of the Awami League-backed White Panel, which was barred from participation following a special general meeting decision on 26 April. It is the first time in the association’s history that Awami League-aligned lawyers did not contest.
