Rashed Khan, general secretary of the organisation, submitted the names to the Cabinet Division at the Secretariat today.
He told reporters the new Election Commission should be formed according to international standards.
"The upcoming election must be the best election in the history of the world. No one that is involved in party politics or has done student politics in the past or a beneficiary of the Awami League can be appointed," he said.
