The High Court has dismissed a writ petition filed by Nahid Islam, convener of the National Citizen Party (NCP), challenging the candidacy of Dr. M A Kayum, the BNP-nominated candidate for the Dhaka-11 constituency. The petition alleged dual citizenship and concealment of information. The order was delivered on Tuesday afternoon by a bench comprising Justice Fahmida Kader and Justice Md Asif Hasan.
Following the court’s decision, lawyers confirmed that there is no legal barrier for Dr. Kayum to contest in the Dhaka-11 election. The dismissal of the writ effectively upholds the validity of his nomination, allowing him to continue his campaign without judicial obstruction.
The ruling resolves one of several legal challenges surrounding BNP candidates ahead of the election, clarifying the status of Dr. Kayum’s eligibility in the Dhaka-11 constituency.
