Senior Supreme Court lawyer and former Islami Chhatra Shibir secretary general Mohammad Shishir Monir announced that the Jamaat-e-Islami-supported 'Green Panel' will not participate in the upcoming Dhaka Bar Association election, calling it a rigged process. He made the statement at a press conference held on April 15, 2026, at the Dhaka Bar premises, where he alleged that the election commission had been unfairly formed to favor one panel.
Monir claimed that out of 11 commission members, 10 were selected from a single panel, violating the association’s tradition of equal representation. He demanded a transparent, digital vote-counting process and equal participation in commission formation. He warned that if the current setup continued, the Green Panel would boycott the election, insisting on a fair and inclusive process.
The Dhaka Bar Association election is scheduled for April 29–30, 2026, with around 30,000 lawyers eligible to vote for 23 executive committee positions. The current ad hoc committee, formed by BNP- and Jamaat-aligned lawyers after the fall of the Awami League government in August 2024, is overseeing the association’s activities.
