The candidates are: Sadakat Khan Sakku (Independent) for Dhaka 16, Md Azharul Islam (Gonoforum) for Kishoreganj-1 and M Shafiur Rahman Khan Bachchu (Gonoforum) for Kishoreganj-2 Constituencies.
The HC Bench of Justice Tariq-ul Hakim and Justice Md Shohrowardi passed the order after hearing three separate writ petitions filed by the aspirants.
The three candidates, in the petitions, said that they went to the Returning Officers of the concerned constituencies to submit their nomination papers on November 28, but the ROs did not receive their nominations saying they delayed in submitting the papers.
They filed the petitions seeking HC directives upon the Returning Officers to receive and scrutinise their papers.
