  • Bangladesh in 2001: the Election and a New Political Reality?
    BANGLADESH IN 2001 The Election and a New Political Reality? M. Rashiduzzaman Though some scattered incidents of violence took place, the Bangladesh election of October 1, 2001, was, relatively speaking, a peace- ful event, especially against the backdrop of galloping strife in the country in recent years. The Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) and its three coalition partners won 216 seats in the 300-member Jatiya Sangshad (national parlia- ment), and Begum Khaleda Zia became prime minister of the new BNP-led government. Both the Election Commission and the constitutionally man- dated caretaker government earned admiration at home and abroad for con- ducting a successful poll and transferring power to the newly elected leaders. However, the Awami League (AL), the BNP’s predecessor as ruling party, accused the BNP and its partners of a “crude rigging” of the election in con- nivance with the nonpartisan interim government and the Election Commis- sion.1 Periodic political and communal violence after the election forced the new government to promise an “intensive drive” against lawlessness, which included the dramatic move on Khaleda’s part of suspending the Chatra Dal Central committee of the BNP’s student front. 2 Confident after her landslide victory, Khaleda then made appeals to her political rivals for peace and coop- eration and called for all to work for the prosperity of Bangladesh. 3 M.

  • BANGLADESH: from AUTOCRACY to DEMOCRACY (A Study of the Transition of Political Norms and Values)
    BANGLADESH: FROM AUTOCRACY TO DEMOCRACY (A Study of the Transition of Political Norms and Values) By Golam Shafiuddin THESIS Submitted to School of Public Policy and Global Management, KDI in partial fulfillment of the requirements the degree of MASTER OF PUBLIC POLICY 2002 BANGLADESH: FROM AUTOCRACY TO DEMOCRACY (A Study of the Transition of Political Norms and Values) By Golam Shafiuddin THESIS Submitted to School of Public Policy and Global Management, KDI in partial fulfillment of the requirements the degree of MASTER OF PUBLIC POLICY 2002 Professor PARK, Hun-Joo (David) ABSTRACT BANGLADESH: FROM AUTOCRACY TO DEMOCRACY By Golam Shafiuddin The political history of independent Bangladesh is the history of authoritarianism, argument of force, seizure of power, rigged elections, and legitimacy crisis. It is also a history of sustained campaigns for democracy that claimed hundreds of lives. Extremely repressive measures taken by the authoritarian rulers could seldom suppress, or even weaken, the movement for the restoration of constitutionalism. At times the means adopted by the rulers to split the opposition, create a democratic facade, and confuse the people seemingly served the rulers’ purpose. But these definitely caused disenchantment among the politically conscious people and strengthened their commitment to resistance. The main problems of Bangladesh are now the lack of national consensus, violence in the politics, hartal (strike) culture, crimes sponsored with political ends etc. which contribute to the negation of democracy. Besides, abject poverty and illiteracy also does not make it easy for the democracy to flourish. After the creation of non-partisan caretaker government, the chief responsibility of the said government was only to run the routine administration and take all necessary measures to hold free and fair parliamentary elections.

  • The Delegation and Its Work
    STATEMENT OF THE NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC INSTITUTE (NDI)/CARTER CENTER PRE-ELECTION DELEGATION TO BANGLADESH’S 2001 PARLIAMENTARY ELECTIONS Dhaka, August 4, 2001 This statement is offered by the joint National Democratic Institute (NDI)/Carter Center pre- election delegation to Bangladesh’s 2001 parliamentary elections. The delegation, which visited Bangladesh from July 30-August 4, was led by Jimmy Carter, former President of the United States, and included: Tioulong Saumura, Member of Cambodia’s National Assembly and member of the Steering Committee of the Sam Rainsy Party; Patrick Merloe, NDI Senior Associate and Director of Programs on Elections and Political Processes; Ashley Barr, The Carter Center Senior Program Associate, Democracy Program; Lawrence Lachmansingh, NDI Asia Programs Deputy Director; and James Oliver, NDI Resident Representative in Bangladesh. NDI and The Carter Center are planning to organize an international observer delegation to the elections and will continuously monitor the electoral process through the post-election period. Additional statements and reports will be issued as appropriate. NDI and The Carter Center do not seek to interfere in or to certify the election process; we recognize that ultimately it is the people of Bangladesh who will determine the meaning of the elections. SUMMARY OF OBSERVATIONS The upcoming parliamentary elections and the processes surrounding them present a unique opportunity for strengthening democracy in Bangladesh. The electoral environment is marked by an impressive number of positive factors and, at the same time, by serious challenges for conducting a peaceful process and for moving forward democratically after the elections. The single largest obstacle to ensuring a democratic environment is the hostility between the two major parties that breeds politically motivated disharmony and violence.

  • Assumption of the Office of Chief Adviser of Non-Party Caretaker Government in Bangladesh: a Critical Politico-Legal Analysis
    Journal of Law, Policy and Globalization www.iiste.org ISSN 2224-3240 (Paper) ISSN 2224-3259 (Online) Vol 7, 2012 Assumption of the Office of Chief Adviser of Non-Party Caretaker Government in Bangladesh: A Critical Politico-Legal Analysis Dr. Md. Morshedul Islam, Assistant Professor, Department of Law, University of Rajshahi, Bangladesh Abstract Allegation of electoral rigging is a common phenomenon in Bangladesh. This allegation became acute in the reign of autocratic H.M. Ershad. Hence the Non-party Caretaker Government was instituted on the basis of consensus of political parties with the fall of H.M. Ershad in 1990 for holding free, fair and neutral poll. By and large the Caretaker Governments of Justices Shahabuddin Ahmed, Habibur Rahman and Latifur Rahman performed their desired goal. In 2006 crisis arose as to the appointment of the Head of Non-party Caretaker Government because of enhancement of the age of Justices of the High Court by 14 th Amendment. It is supposed that this amendment was intended to employ a person having leaning to out going government as the head of Caretaker Government. Thus stormy opposition surfaced against the appointment of head of Caretaker Government. In the last days of out going government chaotic and anarchic situation arising out of uncompromising stand of the outgoing ruling parties and the opposition forced the President to take over the office of Non-party caretaker Government. This study is intended to analyse legal and political scenario that made the unconstitutional step of President constitutional. Keywords: Non-party caretaker Government, free and fair election, election commission, opposition demand, neutral person, movement, violence, crisis 1.
