Bangladesh News Today | PM Modi Wishes BNP Chief Tarique Rahman After Poll Win #NDTV

This is the first election since the July 2024 uprising that ended former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s 15 years of iron-fisted rule. The polling on Thursday involved more than 127 million eligible voters in the nation of around 170 million people, with 1,981 candidates contesting across 299 parliamentary seats nationwide, according to the Election Commission of Bangladesh (ECB). Voting was cancelled in one constituency due to the death of a candidate. Bangladeshi citizens living abroad will also be able to participate through a postal voting system for the first time.

The country’s political landscape has for decades revolved around two rival dynasties. On one side is the Awami League, headed by Hasina, and on the other is the Bangladesh Nationalist Party, now led by Rahman, son of former Prime Minister Khaleda Zia, who died in December. Challenging the BNP is a broad 11-party coalition spearheaded by the Islamist Jamaat-e-Islami, which is now emerging as the main opposition in the country.
