The Election Commission has decided to award registration to three political parties, including the National Citizen Party (NCP), said EC Senior Secretary Akhtar Ahmed on Tuesday.

The two other parties are Bangladesh Samajtantrik Dal (Marxist) and Aam Janagan Party.

“We’ve verified the authenticity of their documents submitted with the registration applications. The Commission considered that these three parties are eligible for registration,” he told reporters at Nirbachan Bhaban in the capital.

A public notification will be published in newspapers regarding the registration of these parties on Wednesday, the EC Secretary added.
