Internal conflict within the Jamalpur district unit of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) has reached a critical stage, dividing leaders and activists into four distinct factions. The dispute, which has become one of the most discussed political issues in the district, has led to increasing tension and sporadic violence. Local analysts fear that the situation could escalate into a major violent confrontation at any time.

According to reports, the BNP in Jamalpur is now split into groups led by district general secretary and MP Warres Ali Mamun, youth leader Sohel Rana Khan, vice president Shamim Ahmed, and organizing secretary Firoz Mia. The rivalry has intensified ahead of the upcoming municipal elections. The conflict reportedly stems from disputes over control of sand leases, tenders, and financial benefits. Allegations of corruption, extortion, and favoritism have circulated on social media through leaked videos and audio clips.

A recent sand lease tender at the Brahmaputra River’s Char Jatharthapur-Chhonkanda Ghat triggered further controversy, prompting multiple press conferences and public accusations. Party leaders have urged restraint, warning that continued infighting could weaken organizational unity.
