Bangladesh Election Open Thread

How can it be a fair election if the Awami League were banned?

It’s like saying Pakistan is a democracy with Imran Khan still in jail?

The only true democracy in undivided India remains Bharat that is India.

Awami League is banned because Sheikh Hasina’s regime shot at the students in 2024. Bangladesh’s courts have sentenced Hasina to death. As of today, she is still trying to undermine Dhaka while sitting in Delhi.

The elections under Hasina were also not internationally considered to be fair. BNP had boycotted them. Awami League was essentially an Indian client regime.

Pakistan is a “hybrid regime” (this is a technical term in political science). Imran Khan has been convicted of a crime in the Toshakhana case. He is considered to be a national security threat.

The reality in Pakistan is that any politician who picks a fight with Pak Fauj finds themselves in prison. Whether we like it or not, this is the world we live in. Pakistan is an “ideological state” and the Army is the guardian of that ideology.

This is why I say, without any malice that Pakistan would be better off as 3-4 smaller democratic states under the benevolent hegemony of India.

Pakistanis deserve democracy.

Sure, you are really thinking from the perspective of the Pakistani people. How magnanimous of you!

We will never ever accept Indian hegemony. This is a complete non-starter.

This comment is anti Pakistan 101. I could make a similar comment about splitting India so Tamil Nadu, Kerala, West Bengal etc are all separate countries. Many of these states despise the BJP government at the center.

But somehow talk of splitting India is not acceptable on BP. Talk of splitting Pakistan gets more of a free pass.

They might “despise” the BJP government but they have the power to vote in their own governments which they do.

Can any Pakistani state government vote out the military?

“You” do not have to accept Indian hegemony. The Baloch, the Pathans and the Sindhis have to.

I think a really good partition would be

Balochistan under BLA (who reform and become a political party)
KPK under PTI (forms free trade are with Afghanistan)
Sindhudesh under PPP
Mohajir Sooba under MQM
Punjabistan under the Sharifs

What say you?

BNP won 208. Jamaat wiped out.

Pakistani’s wet dreams didn’t pan out.

BNP was formed by Ziaur Rahman who was a key part in 1971 when India split Pakistan into two.

This shows that the interim government was holding Bangladesh hostage and the general Bangladesh public want a normal government.

Now ties with India will resume as well as BAL will eventually come back.

Go look in your own backyard, Pakistanis instead of looking at Bangladesh which is some far distant country (since 1971 when we broke Pakistan into two).

There are far more pressing concerns in Balochistan and KPK.
