This election was supposed to restore stability. Instead, it’s dragging the country toward deeper uncertainty. Dr. Yunus’s election is increasingly seen as biased and retaliatory. Major political forces, including the Awami League and pro–Liberation War parties, have been deliberately excluded. Criticism is rising at home and abroad. Many are already calling this a government-engineered, one-sided vote. Officials are everywhere. But the people are not. Nearly 70 percent of citizens oppose this election and are staying away. This is no longer just a fight for power. It is a direct threat to the future of democracy. There are growing rumors of leaders preparing exit plans abroad, while instability tightens its grip at home. Political

alliances are accused of trying to derail the election if victory is not guaranteed. That is nothing less than stealing the people’s right to choose. History has taught us this much: violence and exclusion never resolve political crises. Only inclusive elections can rebuild trust. Only democracy can move the nation forward.
