After Ctg now GoT inspired Jamaat ameer posters make their way in Sylhet

Drawing inspiration from the globally popular television series Game of Thrones, a set of quirky campaign posters has appeared in Sylhet city, days after similar designs were spotted in Chattogram.

Over the past two days, the banners have been seen hanging from electric poles and structures at key points in Sylhet, including Zindabazar and Chowhatta Point.

The posters feature the image of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami Ameer Dr Shafiqur Rahman and promote his upcoming public rally in the city.

The design borrows from the show's iconic line "Winter Is Coming," first introduced in 2011 as a warning of looming danger.

In the Sylhet posters, the slogan has been reworked into "Our Dadu Is Coming."

Instead of the series' central character Jon Snow, Shafiqur is depicted holding the party's election symbol, "the scales," styled to resemble a sword. The snowy backdrop and the image of a wolf further echo the aesthetic associated with the Stark family in the series.

The bottom of the banner reads "Dadu Fan Club Sylhet."

Shafiqur is scheduled to address a public rally at the Alia Madrasa ground in Sylhet on Saturday (7 February) as part of the party's election campaign.

Earlier, similar posters were seen in various parts of Chattogram, including Halishahar and Chawkbazar intersections, on the day of the Jamaat ameer's arrival there for campaign programmes.

Those banners carried the same adapted slogan and were labelled "Dadu Fan Club Ctg."

Leaders of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami in Chattogram had said at the time that the posters were not put up as part of any official organisational decision and that they were unaware of who had arranged them.

Social media searches also showed pages created under the name "Dadu Fan Club Ctg," where images of the banners were shared.

With the theme now making its way to Sylhet, the campaign has added a dose of pop-culture flavour to the election trail.
