Описание: Did Tarique Rahman Give a Green Signal to Sheikh Hasina? | Bangladesh Politics Explained

Did BNP Acting Chairman Tarique Rahman just open the door for Sheikh Hasina—or even her family—to return to politics? In a recent interview with Reuters, Tarique Rahman stated that anyone, including the children of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, has the right to participate in politics if the people accept them.

On the surface, this sounds like a democratic, inclusive statement. But in Bangladesh’s highly polarized political landscape, nothing is ever just surface-level.

Political analysts believe this comment is a calculated move rather than pure generosity. After the July mass uprising and Sheikh Hasina’s exile in India, Bangladeshi politics is undergoing rapid realignment. Jamaat-e-Islami has emerged as a strong grassroots force, creating pressure on BNP to consolidate a broader, secular-leaning vote base. By signaling tolerance toward Awami League supporters—and even the Hasina family—BNP appears to be courting disillusioned Awami voters who fear a hardline shift in national politics.

BNP Secretary General Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir has already promised that “good Awami League leaders” will not be harassed. Tarique Rahman’s remarks seem to be part of the same strategic thread: reassure voters, weaken Jamaat’s appeal, and present BNP as a responsible, democratic alternative ready to govern.

The message also travels well internationally. With Western powers watching Bangladesh’s next election closely, Tarique Rahman’s emphasis on inclusivity, rule of law, and people’s mandate helps soften BNP’s image abroad. His rejection of an alliance government with Jamaat further reinforces BNP’s attempt to rebrand itself as a centrist, liberal democratic force rather than a protest-only party.

Beyond domestic politics, Tarique Rahman also signaled a balanced foreign policy vision—neither anti-India nor blindly pro-China, but driven by economic interest, sovereignty, and job creation for Bangladesh’s youth.

So is this truly a green signal for Sheikh Hasina? Not exactly. It’s a green signal for Awami League voters—and a carefully calculated political investment by BNP as the 2026 election approaches. Whether this strategy pays off will depend on voter behavior, Jamaat’s ground strength, and how Bangladesh’s volatile political chessboard reshapes itself in the months ahead.
