Accept Kader Siddique’s nomination: HC

The High Court on Wednesday told the Election Commission to accept the nomination of Kader Siddique, president of Krishak Sramik Janata League (KSJL), for Tangail-4 by-polls.

The court also issued a rule asking why the decision of cancelling his nomination for defaulting loan repayment would not be declared illegal.

The HC bench of Justice Miftahuddin Choudhury and Justice Kazi Md Ejarul Haque Akondo passed the order after hearing a petition filed by Kader Siddique challenging the legality of the EC’s decision for cancellation of his nomination.
