Jatiya Sangsad

The Jatiya Sangsad, Bangladesh's parliament, is at the center of recent political developments following the 2026 elections. These elections mark a significant turning point after the 2024 uprising and subsequent caretaker rule led by Muhammad Yunus, which toppled Sheikh Hasina's government. The Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP), led by Tarique Rahman, secured a historic majority, leading to Rahman being sworn in as Prime Minister. This event signifies the end of a turbulent period and the restoration of an elected government. The BNP's victory is seen as a reflection of the public's trust in their ability to fulfill the aspirations of the youth who spearheaded the 2024 uprising. The Jatiya Sangsad will now be the arena where the BNP-led government will implement its policies and address the challenges facing Bangladesh.
