In Brahmanbaria, a total of 13 independent candidates have filed their nomination papers for five of the six constituencies. Among them there are five rebel candidates of Awami League. It is believed that the candidate of Awami League will suffer in three seats in those five districts.
As the candidate of Jatiya Party is independent in one seat, Nikeshe will have a lot of influence in terms of votes there as well. Syed AK Ekramuzzaman created a surprise by buying the nomination form while being the adviser of the BNP Chairperson. On the other hand, as there is no independent candidate, Law, Justice and Parliamentary Affairs Minister Anisul Haque’s path to becoming Member of Parliament (MP) for the third consecutive time in Brahmanbaria-4 (Kasba-Akhaura) constituency is smooth. He is largely dependent on the fact that no one else in the Awami League has submitted nomination papers by the deadline on Thursday, the last day to submit nomination papers for his parliamentary seat.
A total of 55 people have submitted nomination papers for six seats in the district. Out of this, six people nominated by Awami League, six people from Jatiya Party and 30 people from other 12 parties submitted their nomination papers. Their nomination papers will be selected on Sunday.
