Bulbul comprehensively beat Awami League-backed candidate AHM Khairuzzaman Liton by 47,332 votes.
He drew 131,058 votes with the poll sign ‘pineapple’ while his nearest contender Liton pulled 83,726 votes with ‘lock’ symbol.
Rajshahi’s Regional Election Officer Shuvash Chandra Sarker announced the final result for all the 137 centres from the temporary control room set up at the Government Laboratory Zilla High School Zilla at around 1:20am on Sunday.
Speaking to bdnews24.com, he said he rather wanted to become a public servant.
Bulbul also hoped to complete the ongoing projects to make Rajshahi an industrial city.
He believes the results of the city corporation elections have reflected the failure of the government in running the country.
Some 286,917 people, 143,395 of them women, were expected to have cast their votes on Saturday to elect public representatives for the next five years.
