The Awami League (AL) will not contest the by-polls for Narayanganj-5 constituency slated for June 26. The seat fell vacant after the death of Jatiya Party MP Nasim Osman on April 30. The main opposition party’s presidium member was elected uncontested in the January 5 general election. The ruling party’s decision was taken at the meeting of its Parliamentary Board at the Ganabhaban on Thursday, Office Secretary Abdus Sobhan Golap told bdnews24.com.
