Senior leaders of Awami League have separately met with ex-MP Shamim Osman and former Narayanganj municipality mayor Selina Hayat Ivy to choose one of them as a party candidate in the Narayanganj City Corporation (NCC) polls.
They met the seniors at the parliament's deputy leader Syeda Sajeda Chowdhury's Gulshan residence on Sunday morning.
After the meeting Shamim told : "I can't say anything on the issue now as I've been asked not to [say anything]. I was alone there. She (Ivy) went there after [I left]"
The two leaders of the ruling party's Narayanganj unit are among the aspirants from Awami League who are vying for the mayoral post in the newly formed corporation.
After prime minister and party chief Sheikh Hasina met the central leaders to discuss the issue on Saturday, joint general secretary Mahbub-ul-Alam Hanif had said the two candidates would sit with Sajeda at 10am Sunday.
"Hopefully there will be a final decision on party support during this meeting," he had said.
