The political crisis in Bangladesh intensifies as the Muhammad Yunus-led interim government prepares for elections on February 12. The National Citizens Party (NCP), initially aligned with Jamaat-e-Islami, is fracturing due to internal discord and dissatisfaction with Jamaat’s control. Many NCP members are rejecting ties with Jamaat, fearing it would turn Bangladesh into a puppet state of Pakistan and hinder progress. As the NCP grapples with seat allocations and leadership disputes, some factions are considering alliances with the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP), which distanced itself from Jamaat’s violent ideology. The evolving landscape suggests the potential dissolution of the NCP before the elections, significantly impacting the country’s political dynamics and electoral outcomes.
