In Bangladesh, student activists have formed the National Citizens Party (NCP) to challenge the entrenched political landscape dominated by two family-run parties. The party emerged from last year's mass protests against Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, seeking to promote national unity, transparency, and an independent foreign policy. Nahid Islam, a prominent figure from the protests, has taken leadership, emphasizing governance free from corruption. As Bangladesh prepares for elections possibly by early 2026, the NCP aims to mobilize the youth and restore freedom of expression and political engagement in educational institutions.
