Bangladesh Jatiya Party is a political party in Bangladesh. It is a splinter-group of the original Jatiya Party, that was founded by the former President of Bangladesh Hossain Mohammad Ershad. It was previously known as Jatiya Party (Naziur), after the late party chairman Naziur Rahman Manjur. The party is registered with the Election Commission of Bangladesh as Bangladesh Jatiya Party-BJP, in order to differentiate it from the splinter-group Bangladesh Jatiya Party led by M.A. Matin. The party, at present, is chaired by Barrister Aandaleeve Rahman Partho MP - son of late Naziur Rahman Manjur. Andaleeve along with his younger brother Ashikur Rahman contested in the 9th parliamentary elections from Bhola-1 and Bhola-2.
