In the upcoming parliamentary election for Dhaka-19 (Savar-Ashulia), BNP-nominated candidate Dr. Dewan Mohammad Salauddin Babu is conducting an energetic campaign and receiving strong voter response. Meanwhile, NCP candidate Dilshana Parul, backed by Jamaat-e-Islami and an 11-party alliance, is depending on Jamaat’s vote bank but has yet to mobilize a large portion of its activists on the ground. Field reports indicate that among eight contestants, the BNP candidate and former MP Babu currently enjoys a lead in public support.
Dr. Babu has pledged a 100-day priority plan focusing on eliminating drugs, extortion, and illegal occupation of footpaths, along with traffic control measures. He is contesting for the fifth time under BNP’s “sheaf of paddy” symbol. Dilshana Parul, a former Jahangirnagar University student leader, entered the race after Jamaat withdrew its own candidate but faces hesitation among long-time Jamaat workers due to the new election symbol.
Election officials said 38 of the 275 polling centers have been marked as risky, with additional security and CCTV already deployed. The constituency has 747,070 registered voters.
