The recent elections in Bangladesh have opened a new chapter in South Asian politics, creating an opportunity for political renewal and a potential reset in India-Bangladesh relations. After a prolonged period marked by political uncertainty and a difficult interim phase, the emergence of an elected govt offers the prospect of restoring institutional stability and rebuilding regional confidence. Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) has secured a decisive mandate, winning over two-thirds of the seats in Jatiya Sangsad, a result shaped in part by the exclusion of Awami League from the electoral process.
