’14-Party Alliance candidates will contest in election with ‘Boat’ symbol’

Jatiya Samajtantrik Dal (JSD-Inu) president Hasanul Huq Inu has said that the Awami League led 14-party alliance candidates will contest in the coming election with ‘Boat’ symbol.

He stated it to reporters after holding a meeting with the 14-party alliance coordinator Amir Hossain Amu on Tuesday (December 5) afternoon.

Earlier in the afternoon, Workers Party president Rashed Khan Menon, JSD-Inu president Hasanul Huq Inu and general secretary Shirin Akhter sat with Amir Hossain Amu at the latter’s residence at Eskaton in the capital.

Following the meeting, Inu said it was made clear through the meeting with Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina that the ‘alliance is existed’ and the alliance would take part in the election together.

“We will be able to resolve the seat-sharing issue sitting together. It is normal that there will have bargaining in any kind of concession. We will come out holding our hands together at the end of the day. The Awami League candidates will abandon the election in the constituencies where the alliance candidates will take part,” he said.

Inu further said they told the Awami League president [Sheikh Hasina] to take the party strategy into consideration regarding the Independent candidates. “There is enough time. We will sit and discuss the matter. Candidates will hold election with ‘Boat’ symbol.”

Inu said if someone withdraws the nomination paper, it doesn’t mean that he or she has violated the code of conduct.

Earlier on Monday evening, the Awami League led 14-party alliance held a meeting with Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina at Ganabhaban. Awami League general secretary Obaidul Quader, 14-Party Alliance coordinator Amir Hossain Amu, Jatiya Party-JP president Anwar Hossain Manju, Workers Party president Rashed Khan Menon and Fazle Hossain Badsha, JSD-Inu president Hasanul Huq Inu and general secretary Shirin Akhter, Samyabadi Dal general secretary Dilip Barua and Tariqat Federation’s chairman Najibul Bashar Maizbhandari were present.
