Although many candidates submitted their nomination papers in this election, the nomination papers of 3 of them were declared valid.
The candidates whose nomination papers were declared valid during the scrutiny of nomination papers on Monday are- current Member of Parliament Mostafizur Rahman Chowdhury, candidate for Awami League's boat symbol, Mujibur Rahman CIP, vice-president of Chattogram South District Awami League and owner of a renowned industrial institution of the countryand Abdullah KabirLiton, leader of South District Awami League.
According to the locals, even though BNP did not participate in the election this time, there are those two Awami League leaders who are independent candidates to block the path of current parliamentarian Mostafizur Rahman Chowdhury, who is the candidate of Awami League's boat symbol. As a result, a different mood will appear in this election.
