BB seeks info on GCC candidates

The Bangladesh Bank has sought information about the aspirants who submitted their nomination papers for the upcoming Gazipur City Corporation (GCC) polls, to check for loan defaulters.

In this regard, the regulator’s Credit Information Bureau (CIB) Joint Director Md Shahidul Islam sent a letter to the returning officer of the election on Thursday, as the submission of nomination papers ended the same day.

In the letter, the central bank sought candidates’ full names along with their parents’ names and husband’s name (if applicable), National ID number (Bangla and English), taxpayer identification number (TIN), date of birth, and permanent and present addresses.

Meanwhile, suspended GCC mayor Jahangir Alam and his mother also submitted their nomination papers for the polls, which are scheduled to be held on May 25.
