Bangladesh Awami League candidate Nuruzzaman Biswas has won the parliamentary by-election to Pabna-4 constituency by a huge margin. Returning Officer Abdul Latif Sheikh announced the results on Saturday (Sep 26) night after the voting from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., local media reported.
Mr Nuruzzaman, a vice-president of the ruling party’s Pabna district committee, was serving as chairman of Ishwardi Upazila Council.
The Pabna-4 seat, consisting of Ishwardi and Atgharia Upazilas, fell vacant due to the death of Awami League lawmaker Shamsur Rahman Sherif Dilu on Apr 2.
Awami League have won in Pabna-4 constituency in the last five parliament elections, and has managed to keep the seat by winning in the by-election this time too.
