However, ruling Awami League leaders say they are not at all concerned over the issue. However, JP candidates will not have any serious impact on the grand alliance candidates, they said. Awami League recently reached a deal with its allies over seat-sharing. The party has also fielded candidates in constituencies where there are Awami League candidates. Jatiya Party candidates under the grand alliance are contesting with Awami League's electoral symbol “boat”,while the other candidates running under party banner will use JaPa's "plough" symbol.
