Bangladesh’s February 2026 election is widely seen as rigged, with predetermined seat-sharing, political exclusion, and voters reduced to spectators.

The sudden inclusion of nearly 2 million new voters across 20 parliamentary constituencies in metropolitan Dhaka has raised serious concerns about the neutrality and transparency of Bangladesh’s electoral process. Political parties and election observers allege that the scale, timing, and geographic concentration of these additions suggest deliberate manipulation rather than routine voter list updates. With questions over verification procedures and allegations of organized interference, the Election Commission’s silence has only deepened public suspicion, fueling fears that the credibility of the upcoming election—and the democratic system itself—is at risk.

Concerns over the neutrality of the interim administration are intensifying as nomination scrutiny for the 13th National Parliamentary Election exposes growing political imbalance. Leaders of the National Citizen Party have openly accused the administration of favoring the BNP, pointing to the validation of controversial BNP candidacies alongside the mass cancellation of Jamaat nominations. Against the backdrop of Tarique Rahman’s return from exile, swift legal clearances, and visible administrative goodwill, analysts warn that the electoral field is being quietly tilted. As smaller allies face disqualification and legal distractions, the emerging picture suggests an election increasingly structured to benefit the BNP—raising serious questions about fairness, competition, and the credibility of the process.
