Four candidates from religious and ethnic minority communities, all nominated by the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP), have won seats in the 13th National Parliamentary Election. The voting took place on Thursday across 299 constituencies alongside a national referendum, with official results announced for 297 seats by the Election Commission. The winners include Gayeshwar Chandra Roy from Dhaka-3, Nitai Roy Chowdhury from Magura-2, Saching Prue from Bandarban, and Dipen Dewan from Rangamati.
BNP had nominated six candidates from minority communities, of whom two were defeated in Bagerhat-1 and Bagerhat-4. Jamaat-e-Islami and the National Citizen Party (NCP) each fielded one minority candidate, both of whom lost. In total, 79 minority candidates contested the election, with 22 registered political parties nominating 67 of them and 12 running as independents.
The results highlight BNP’s relative success in securing minority representation in the new parliament, as all four winning minority candidates came from its slate.
