Rumors spread on social media late Thursday night claiming that Nasiruddin Patwary, the chief coordinator of the National Citizen Party (NCP), had resigned from his position.

Posts circulating on various social media platforms alleged that he had submitted his resignation letter seeking relief from party duties. However, the NCP has dismissed the claims as false.

In a statement signed by NCP’s Joint Member Secretary (Office) Saleh Uddin Sifat around 2 a.m. Thursday, the party said, “Nasiruddin Patwary is still with us. He recently performed his duties related to party registration with the Election Commission. As the chief coordinator, he continues to oversee various party wings. The claim about his resignation or stepping down is completely untrue.”

Several NCP leaders also wrote on Facebook that the entire matter was nothing but a rumor with no factual basis.
