Jamaat candidate withdraws from Hasnat’s constituency
Jamaat-e-Islami candidate Saiful Islam Shahid has withdrawn from the election in the Comilla-4, Debidwar constituency, following an electoral understanding that cleared the seat for Hasnat Abdullah.
Shahid announced the decision on Sunday night, December 28, through a post on his verified Facebook account.
In the post, he said he had stepped aside from the election in compliance with the organisation’s central decision and prayed for lifelong perseverance in the cause of establishing Islamic values.
Earlier, the National Citizen Party joined the Jamaat-led eight-party alliance. The announcement was made at a press conference held at the National Press Club on Sunday, where Jamaat ameer Dr Shafiqur Rahman formally disclosed the alliance.
