Political career

Shamim Shahnawaz younger brother Ashrafur Rahman was nominated by Bangladesh Awami League for the Pirojpur-3 Mathbaria seat in the 12th National Assembly elections of 2024. Later he had to withdraw his nomination due to seat sharing calculations. Although the nomination was withdrawn, Ashrafur Rahman supported his elder brother, independent candidate Shamim Shahnewaz. "As a result, Shamim Shahnewaz, with the banana stick symbol, defeated four-time MP Md. Rustum Ali Faraji, securing 62,130 votes to become a member of parliament.[4][5] After the non-cooperation movement in 2024, President Mohammed Shahabuddin dissolved the National Assembly, resulting in him losing his position as a member of parliament.[6]
