BNP’s central election steering committee spokesperson and party chairperson’s adviser Mahadi Amin has accused Jamaat of buying votes ahead of the national election, describing it as a sign of political bankruptcy and a violation of the electoral code of conduct. Speaking at a press conference in Gulshan on Tuesday, he alleged that Jamaat was using money to lure voters, including children, even in the constituency of its party chief. He said such actions contradict the party’s proclaimed anti-corruption stance and demonstrate moral failure.
Amin cited specific clauses from the Election Commission’s 2025 Code of Conduct and the Representation of the People Order, 1972, noting that offering money or gifts to voters constitutes a punishable offense. He urged the Election Commission and returning officers to take immediate legal action. He also alleged that Jamaat candidates in Khulna-1 and other constituencies were distributing cash and that its activists had attacked BNP supporters in Comilla and Bogura.
Amin claimed that public support for BNP was at its peak and that any attempts at misinformation, violence, or financial manipulation would fail to prevent the party’s victory if a free and fair election were held.
