When will Bangladesh hold election? Begum Zia’s party grows impatient with Yunus

The political turmoil is not over yet in Bangladesh. The next biggest party in Bangladesh, the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BMP) — of former Prime Minister Begum Khaleda Zia who remained imprisoned or sidelined for a decade and her son and BNP’s acting chairperson Tarique Rahman still lives in exile in London — is pressing for holding early elections while caretaker Muhammad Yunus has indicated that the polls will be delayed.
