Dr. Tasnim Jara, Senior Joint Member Secretary of the National Citizen Party (NCP), has officially purchased a nomination form to contest in the upcoming national elections from Dhaka-9 constituency under the NCP banner.

The news was confirmed late Monday night (November 10) through a Facebook post by Sarjis Alam, NCP’s Chief Organizer for the Northern Region.

Earlier that evening, around 10 PM, Dr. Jara collected her nomination form from the party’s temporary central office in Banglamotor, Dhaka.

Statement from Dr. Tasnim Jara

In a brief statement shared on social media, Dr. Jara confirmed her candidacy and outlined her next steps in the nomination process.

“I have collected the nomination form to contest from Dhaka-9. I have been instructed by the party to submit my completed nomination form by the 13th. I’ve now officially joined that process. If I get the opportunity, I believe we can bring meaningful change through the NCP,” she said.

Her announcement was met with a wave of encouragement from supporters and NCP activists across the capital, many of whom see her candidacy as a symbol of reform-minded, educated leadership within the party.
