ALT Bangladesh’s electoral history reveals a consistent pattern of erosion of democracy. The findings from the National Election Investigation Commission highlight the undermining of the Election Commission, the marginalisation of opposition parties, decreased voter turnout, and the consolidation of autocratic rule under Sheikh Hasina, ultimately leading to her ouster. Even the elections before 2011 were plagued by violence, protests, and allegations of vote rigging. The upcoming elections in February 2025 may not offer a solution to the country’s fractured political landscape. The interim government had a chance to repair and heal the nation, but it appears to have missed that opportunity.
