The Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) and Bangladesh Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam have reached an electoral understanding ahead of the upcoming national polls. Under the agreement, BNP will not field candidates in four constituencies where Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam will contest, while Jamiat will reciprocate in BNP-held seats. BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir announced the deal at a joint press conference at the party chairperson’s Gulshan office, urging voters to support the 'date tree' symbol in those constituencies.
The four constituencies allocated to Jamiat are Nilphamari-1, Narayanganj-4, Sylhet-5, and Brahmanbaria-2. The candidates include Maulana Manjurul Islam Afendi, Mufti Monir Hossain Kasemi, Maulana Ubaidullah Faruq, and Maulana Junaid Al-Habib. The announcement follows earlier amendments to the Representation of the People Order (RPO), requiring coalition partners to contest under their own party symbols.
Political analysts view the arrangement as a strategic move by BNP to consolidate opposition votes and strengthen its alliance base before the election. The cooperation may influence local dynamics in key constituencies, potentially reshaping opposition coordination in the coming months.
