Is democracy in Bangladesh undergoing a reversal? This question must be asked in the wake of the country’s troubled tenth parliamentary elec- tion, which took place on 5 January 2014. Boycotted by the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) and the rest of the opposition, the voting was marred by the lowest turnout and worst electoral violence in Bangla- desh’s 43-year history.1 The result is a Parliament in which the incum- bent Awami League (AL) and its allies control nearly all 300 elected seats.2 Owing to the boycott, more than half the races—or 154, to be exact—featured but a single candidate. Before the polls opened, BNP leader Khaleda Zia (who served as prime minister in 1991–96 and 2001–2006) had been placed under vir- tual house arrest while Jatiya Party (JP) head H.M.

  • Bangladesh Legislative Elections, 29 December 2008
    LEGISLATIVE ELECTIONS IN BANGLADESH ELECTION OBSERVATION DELEGATION 27 – 31 December 2008 REPORT BY MR Charles TANNOCK CHAIRMAN OF THE DELEGATION Report 2 Annexes 7 1 INTRODUCTION Following an invitation from the Bangladeshi authorities, the Conference of Presidents decided at its meeting on 23 October to authorise the sending of a delegation of the European Parliament to observe the legislative elections in Bangladesh, at that time scheduled for the 18 December. The Constitutive Meeting of the EP EOM was held in Strasbourg on the 19th November and M. Robert Evans (PSE,UK) was elected Chairman. However, the rescheduling of the Election date in Bangladesh to the 29th December made it, unfortunately, not possible for many of the Members initially appointed by their Political Groups to maintain their availability. A new constitutive meeting was therefore held on the 10th December, with M. Charles Tannock (EPP/ED, UK) elected Chairman of a 4-strong delegation; as is customary, these Members were appointed by the political groups in accordance with the rolling d'Hondt system (the list of participants is annexed to this report; the ALDE political group gave its seat to the N/I group). Taking into account this change of dates, the Conference of Presidents re-examined the situation at its meeting of the 17th December and confirmed its initial decision to send a parliamentary delegation. As is usual, the European Parliament's delegation was fully integrated into the European Union Election Observation Mission (EU EOM), which was led by Mr Alexander Graf LAMBSDORFF, MEP (ALDE, D). The EU EOM deployed 150 observers from 25 EU Member States plus Norway and Switzerland.

  • Dr Md Jahid Hossain Bhuiyan Contested Secularism in Bangladesh MPIL Agora 21 July 2021, 15:00 H-16:00 H, Via Zoom
    Dr Md Jahid Hossain Bhuiyan Contested Secularism in Bangladesh MPIL Agora 21 July 2021, 15:00 h-16:00 h, via Zoom There are different ways in which scholars comprehend secularism. According to some, secularism means that religion is fully separated from the state and plays no part in the public domain. Others are of the view that, while secularism denotes in principle the separation between religion and state, there should be some involvement of religion in the public domain, because it is a vital part of the lives of individuals. This article aims to present the various interpretations of secularism, create a classification of secular- ism models and examine how secularism is considered in Bangladesh. For this purpose, it analyses statements given by Sheikh Mujibur Rahman (known as the Father of the Nation and the leader of Bangladesh Awami League) in support of the secularist model. Sheikh Mujib and his political party did not explicitly use the word “secularism” until the War of Independence in 1971. However, secularist ideals were emphasised by the party and secularism was included in the Constitu- tion of Bangladesh of 1972. In Bangladesh, secularism is understood as the antithesis of communal- ism. Anti-communalism does not refer to anti-religion; rather, it eliminates the conflict between the various sub-national communities and describes politics by giving equal status to individuals in a uni- fied national community. President Ziaur Rahman removed the secularism principle from the Constitu- tion in 1977 (5th Amendment). Islam was then declared as the state religion in 1988 during the rule of President Hussain Muhammad Ershad (8th Amendment).
