Ten leaders and activists of Islami Andolan Bangladesh from Ward 75 (Daserkandi) under Dhaka South have joined Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami. The group included Gazi Nasir Uddin, president of the ward unit, businessman Kazi Akter Hossain, and Kazi Khaled Hossain. They formally joined the party on Saturday morning at a ceremony held in the capital’s Daserkandi area.
The event was attended by Kabir Ahmad, Jamaat’s nominated candidate for the Dhaka-9 parliamentary seat and central vice-president of the Labour Welfare Federation, as the chief guest. The program was presided over by Maulana Mahmudur Rahman, amir of Khilgaon East Thana Jamaat. Party leaders welcomed the new members and highlighted the organization’s ideology, goals, and objectives.
The joining marks a local-level shift of Islami Andolan members toward Jamaat-e-Islami in Dhaka South, reflecting ongoing political realignments within Islamist groups in the area.
