BNP ticket seeker suspended on anti-party charge

Moulvibazar district BNP joint secretary Muazzem Hussain Matuk, also a nomination seeker from Moulvibazar-3 constituency consisting of Sadar and Rajnagar upazilas, was relieved of his post for passing comments against the district committee.

Moulvibazar district BNP executive committee took the decision at a meeting held here recently.

Matuk who is also chairman of Nazirabad Union Parishad (UP) in Sadar upazila lost his primary membership at the same time, said district BNP general secretary Md Faizul Karim Mayun.

However, Matuk said the district committee has no power to relieve him from the party post. 'It is the central committee who can take action against me', he said.
