The National Citizen Party (NCP) has announced that any candidate found involved in corruption, terrorism, or fascist activities will have their nomination cancelled. The warning came from NCP convener Nahid Islam during a briefing at the party’s temporary office on Wednesday, following the release of a list of 125 preliminary candidates by the party’s member secretary Akhtar Hossain.
Nahid Islam emphasized that the nomination process remains open and subject to public verification. He said the party has not reserved any seats for specific individuals and that the selection was based on reports from the nomination board. The NCP aims to maintain inclusivity in its candidate list, ensuring representation from women, minorities, and professionals such as teachers, doctors, engineers, and expatriates.
He added that the party will continue to review nominations until all 300 constituencies are finalized. If credible allegations arise against any candidate, their nomination will be revoked, and new candidates may be considered to ensure transparency and accountability in the selection process.
