After implementing some crucial reforms and creating the election commission (EC ), Bangladesh’s interim government adviser Muhammad Yunus vowed to hold the “desired” national elections on Sunday. While he refrained from specifying a date for the elections, Yunus hinted that the government’s “election coach” has now started its journey. ” Some measures can be made during the preparation for the votes, and for this reason, the pollssss does get delayed by a few months”, he added.
Indo-Bangla connections:

Speaking at the Bay of Bengal Conversation organised by Centre for Governance Studies in Dhaka, he highlighted progress in business, travel, electricity connection, and people-to-people activities as symbols of the enduring relationship between the two neighbours.
