Ishraque Hossain, elected from Dhaka-6 constituency, was unable to take oath with BNP lawmakers due to arriving late at the Parliament House on Tuesday.
He later joined the oath-taking ceremony alongside MPs of Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami and took the oath as a member of parliament.
After completing the parliamentary oath, Jamaat MPs proceeded to take oath as members of the Constitutional Reform Council. Ishraque, however, left the venue at that stage and did not participate in the reform council swearing-in.
