Career
Jashimuddin was elected to the parliament in the 2008 election from Bhola-3 as a Bangladesh Awami League candidate. His rival, Hafizuddin Ahmed of Bangladesh Nationalist Party filed a petition with the court challenging the legality of election. The Bangladesh High Court ruled against him as he had been sent on forced retirement from Bangladesh Army on 31 August 2004. According to Bangladesh law, government employees who have been sent to forced retirement cannot contest elections within 5 years. By-elections were called for Bhola-3 which was won by Bangladesh Awami league candidate Nurunnabi Chowdhury.
