While on one hand the uncontrolled violence of radical Islamic groups is moving towards anarchy in Bangladesh, meanwhile a big political development is coming to the fore before the elections to be held in the month of February next year. In fact, one of the most important personalities of the current politics of Bangladesh is going to return to the country after 17 years and that personality, Tariq Rahman, son and political heir of former Prime Minister of Bangladesh Khaleda Zia and working president of Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP), will return to Bangladesh on Thursday (December 25, 2025).
Tariq Rahman’s return to Bangladesh is coming at a time when the country is at a turning point. In fact, BNP is still considered to be at the forefront in the general elections to be held in the month of February 2026 next year and in such a situation, it may be in a position to give direction to the country. Apart from this, the chances of BNP’s victory without any major upset in the country are considered strong.
Rahman raised questions on Yunus’s foreign policy decisions
Looking at the current situation of the country, while many people consider the head of the interim government of Bangladesh, Mohammad Yunus, to be careless especially on the foreign policy front, Tariq Rahman has clearly put forward the possible foreign policy of BNP. In May this year, BNP Chief Tariq Rehman, while emphasizing the need for elections and reforms, had questioned Yunus’s mandate on the basis of which he is taking decisions related to the country’s long-term foreign policy.
Tariq Rahman spoke on the first policy of Bangladesh
BNP Chief Tariq Rehman made it clear that Bangladesh will neither increase its closeness with Rawalpindi nor Delhi excessively, but will give priority to Bangladesh first. During a massive rally in Dhaka’s Nayapaltan area, Rehman had said ‘No Delhi, No Pindi, Bangladesh first’ and appealed to his supporters to repeat this slogan.
