The incumbent is challenged by Ridzuan Sarif of the Perikatan Nasional (PN), Aliza Che Amran from Bersatu, and independent candidate Abu Bakar Sabudin.
As the PH-Amanah candidate, Adly seeks to maintain the seat he has held since 2018. In the November 2021 general election, he defeated his Barisan Nasional (BN) opponent Hasnoor Sidang Husin with a 1,057-vote majority. Bukit Katil is a predominantly Malay constituency, with Malay voters accounting for nearly 65% of the total electorate, followed by Chinese voters (29%), Indian voters (5%), and others (1%).
The Election Commission (SPR) has set November 14 as the election day, while early voting begins on November 10.
