She admitted to journalists on Sunday, “I am not eligible to vote in city corporation polls. I am a voter of Dhaka Cantonment, which is not under the city corporation.”
Khaleda used to be in a house on Shaheed Moinul Road in Dhaka Cantonment when the voters’ list was updated in 2008.
The house was leased to her as the wife of former president and military strongman Ziaur Rahman.
