Maksudul Alam Khandaker Khorshed, who was widely acclaimed for his humanitarian activities since the start of the coronavrisu pandemic, has become councillor again in Narayanganj City Corporation polls. 

He contested in Ward No. 13 under NCC with the symbol 'wheelbarrow' and bagged 13,792 votes while his nearest rival Shah Faiz Ullah Faiz got 1,022 with the symbol 'radio'.
