Moin Uddin Khan, joint secretary of the EC and returning officer for the reserved women's seats, said 36 candidates from the BNP alliance, 12 from the Jamaat alliance, and one independent candidate were declared elected unopposed on Wednesday

Although voting for the reserved seats was scheduled for 12 May, no election was required as there was only one candidate for each seat.
