DHAKA, June 1, 2025 (BSS)- Election Commission’s lawyer Towhidul Islam said that the apex court did not make any observation regarding the allocation of the Jamaat-e-Islami’s electoral symbol despite it asked the EC for restoration of its registration.

A four-member Appellate Division headed by Chief Justice Syed Refaat Ahmed today delivered the verdict overturning the High Court’s earlier order cancelling Jamaat-e-Islami's registration.

In its judgment, the Supreme Court stated that the Election Commission (EC) should take necessary actions concerning Jamaat-e-Islami’s "pending registration" and other related matters. 

Furthermore, the court approved Jamaat’s application for withdraw its separate petition regarding the party’s election symbol, and thus provided no specific order on that issue.

Following the verdict, Towhidul Islam told reporters that the matter of the electoral symbol was not part of this case. So, the court did not issue any directive regarding the Jamaat’s election symbol.
