Six aspirants out of seven vying for the post of mayor of Dhaka North City Corporation (DNCC) have been declared valid by the Election Commission.
The panel, however, cancelled the nomination of Jatiya Party’s Kamrul Islam as he is not a registered voter of the city corporation.
Returning officer Abul Kashem made the announcement at Dhaka’s NILG Bhaban on Thursday after scrutinising all the nomination papers, reports bdnews24.
The valid candidates are: Awami League’s Atiqul Islam, BNP’s Tabith Awal, Islami Andolon Bangladesh’s Sheikh Md Fazle Bari Masud, CPB’s Ahammad Sajedul Huq Rubel, NPP’s Anisur Rahman Dewan, and PDB’s Shahin Khan.
