Actress Mahiya Mahi did not get the nomination from the ruling Awami League in the Chapainawabganj-2 seat by-election. The party has nominated Ziaur Rahman to represent the Chapainawabganj-2 constituency.
This decision was made at the Sunday (January 1) evening meeting of the Awami League nomination board.
The meeting was held at Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's official residence Ganobhaban at 4:30 pm. Awami League Parliamentary Nomination Board President and Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina presided over it.
Earlier, actress Mahiya Mahi bought the nomination form for boat symbol in Chapainawabganj-2 seat by-election on December 29 (Thursday).
After collecting the nomination form from the political office of the Awami League president in Dhanmondi, she told reporters that if she gets the Awami League ticket, she will win by at least 50,000 votes.
Chapainawabganj-2 (Bholahat-Gomostapur-Nachole) seat fell vacant due to the resignation of the party's parliamentarian at the request of the BNP's high command. The by-polls will be held in that seat on February 1.
