Nearly 300 leaders and activists from the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement’s Sherpur district branch joined the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) on Tuesday afternoon at the Sherpur district BNP office. The group, led by chief coordinator Farhan Fuad Tuhin, was welcomed with flowers by Dr. Sansila Zebrin Priyanka, BNP’s nominated candidate for Sherpur-1 constituency and joint convener of the district BNP, along with Sherpur Sadar Upazila BNP convener Md. Hazrat Ali.

Prominent new members include coordinators Al Mamun Sarkar and Arafat Rahman Talukder, organizer Nahim Ahmed Niloy, and several committee secretaries. Tuhin said their 2024 movement aimed to secure rights and build a new Bangladesh, a vision they now believe BNP chairman Tarique Rahman can realize. Priyanka stated that the BNP’s 31-point plan outlines the framework for rebuilding the country and expressed confidence that the new members’ inclusion would strengthen BNP’s local organizations.

Several district and upazila BNP, volunteer, and student leaders were present at the event, which party representatives said would enhance BNP’s organizational strength in Sherpur.
