FBCCI announces candidate names for election after checking defaulter list  

The Board of Directors of the Federation of Bangladesh Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FBCCI), the top organisation of businessmen and industrialists, has released the preliminary list of candidates after scrutinizing the data of various important organisations including tax and debt defaulters and police.

In this election candidates list of 2021-23 term which was published yesterday, 81 candidates who submitted nomination papers for the post of director on 31 March have been verified. KM Akhtaruzzaman and Ferdous Huda Chowdhury have been left out due to them evading tax from the National Board of Revenue. The total number of posts is 80. According to the schedule, the polling will be held on 5 May.

This information was found in the list of candidates signed by the members of the Election Board including FBCCI Election Management Board Chairman Prof Ali Ashraf. According to Election Board sources, a total of 32 candidates have been nominated for the 17 posts in the chamber group and 17 in the association group. Gopalganj Chamber of Commerce and Industries and Bangladesh Association of International Recruiting Agency did not submit candidate names for the two nominated director posts. On the other hand, there are 25 candidates against the 23 posts of the chamber group and 26 candidates against the 23 posts of the association group.
