Thousands of activists from the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) rallied in Dhaka, demanding a democratic transition through new elections as the interim government, led by Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus, has not provided a timeline for voting. Yunus assumed leadership after former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina fled the country following widespread protests against her 15-year rule. While the interim government has announced reform plans affecting various sectors, major political parties, including the BNP, are pressing for elections to be scheduled soon. Tarique Rahman, BNP’s acting chairman, emphasized that while the party supports Yunus's reforms, they must be backed by a new parliament, and he did not specify a date for elections. Initially, the BNP sought elections within three months but later agreed to give the Yunus-led government more time for reforms. The situation reflects a broader anti-government sentiment in the country, with ongoing calls for political empowerment and accountability.
