The Election Commission (EC) has suspended the gazette notification of the results of the two by-polls of Brahmanbaria-2 and Lakshmipur-3 over allegations of irregularities.

EC Secretary Md Jahangir Alam said this while addressing a press conference at its office in the capital today (November 7).

Ruling Awami League nominees secured wins in Brahmanbaria-2 and Lakshmipur-3 by-polls yesterday amid allegations of vote rigging.

According to unofficial results, Shahjahan Alam Saju was elected in the by-polls in Brahmanbaria-2 constituency while Golam Faruque Pinku won Lakshmipur-3 by-polls.
