Who will be Bangladesh’s next PM? Tarique Rahman, once-exiled scion, set to take charge

Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) claims victory in the nation’s first parliamentary election since the 2024 uprising, though final results are pending. The election follows a student-led revolt that ousted former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. BNP leader Tarique Rahman, son of former President Ziaur Rahman and former Prime Minister Khaleda Zia, has returned to lead the party after years abroad.
