Thousands of activists and leaders of the opposition Bangladesh Nationalist Party gathered in Dhaka on Tuesday to demand a democratic transition through a new election. The supporters chanted slogans in front of the BNP headquarters, calling for a prompt election.
The interim government, led by Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus, has introduced various reform plans across sectors such as the Election Commission and financial institutions. However, major political parties, including the BNP under former Prime Minister Khaleda Zia, are pressing for a new election to be held soon.
