Dhaka, Nov. 4 -- Mir Mahbubur Rahman Snigdho, twin brother of July Uprising martyr Mir Mahfuzur Rahman Mugdho, has joined the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP).

He joined the party on Tuesday night at the BNP chairperson's office in Gulshan after submitting the membership form to Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir.

BNP's Acting Chairman Tarique Rahman joined the event virtually from London and welcomed Snigdho to the party.

He also paid tribute to the sacrifice of Mugdho and the contribution of his family.

Mugdho, a student of the Bangladesh University of Professionals (BUP), was killed on Jul 18 last year in Uttara's Azampur during the Anti-discrimination Student Movement while distributing water to the protesters.
