Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami has called on the public and media users to refrain from spreading false and misleading information regarding its potential nominees for the reserved women’s seats in the National Parliament. The appeal was made on Tuesday through a press statement issued by Advocate Ehsanul Mahbub Zubair, the party’s Assistant Secretary General and head of its Central Publicity and Media Department.
In the statement, Zubair said that several social media posts had circulated fake names claiming that wives or close relatives of senior Jamaat leaders were being nominated for the reserved seats. He dismissed these claims as completely baseless and intended to create public confusion. He emphasized that Jamaat-e-Islami operates as an Islamic, systematic, and democratic organization, where all major decisions, including nominations for reserved seats, are made according to its constitution.
Zubair further clarified that the nomination process for women members would be conducted in a fully constitutional manner and in consultation with the party’s women’s division. He urged everyone to avoid spreading misinformation and called on citizens not to be misled by such propaganda.
