Azmat Ullah Khan’s defeat to a 62-year-old woman with no political background has dealt the Awami League a major blow, sending a message to the ruling party about rifts in its grassroots.
The time for electioneering in the Gazipur City Corporation election ended at midnight with very little campaigning done by candidates running for the mayor’s office.

The returning officer, however, declared his mother Zaida Khatun's nomination valid
