After the voting for the 13th parliamentary elections in Bangladesh, the picture of the results has become clear. Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) chief Tariq Rahman, son of former Bangladesh Prime Minister Khaleda Zia, has got a bumper victory in the elections. It is considered certain that Tariq Rahman will become the next Prime Minister of Bangladesh. At the same time, Jamaat-e-Islami had to face a crushing defeat in the elections. The victory of BNP and defeat of Jamaat is special for India in many ways.
Jamaat’s defeat and BNP’s victory is good news for India. Jamaat-e-Islami is known for its fanaticism and conservative thinking, it is considered a supporter of Pakistan. Jamaat had opposed the independence of Bangladesh from Pakistan. Jamaat’s thinking towards minority Hindus of Bangladesh has not been good. At the same time, in the current political situation of Bangladesh, BNP’s victory is a good news for India. BNP can move forward by improving relations with India. There will be pressure from the people of Bangladesh on Tariq Rahman to give more importance to relations with India.
On the death of Khaleda Zia, the Foreign Minister of India visited Dhaka and met Tariq Rehman. During this time, PM’s letter of condolence was also handed over to Tariq Rehman. Even before this, BNP has been in power in Bangladesh, hence BNP knows the importance of relations with India. The victory of BNP and the defeat of Jamaat is also important from the point of view of security of the border states of India.
PM Modi congratulated Tariq Rehman on his victory
Prime Minister Narendra Modi congratulated BNP chief Tariq Rehman on his election victory by posting on social media. PM Modi wrote in the post, Congratulations to Tariq Rahman for making BNP win in Bangladesh parliamentary elections. This victory shows the trust of the people of Bangladesh on your leadership.
India will continue its support for a democratic, progressive and inclusive Bangladesh. I look forward to working with you to strengthen our multifaceted relations and advance our shared development goals.”
