  Bangla Press Desk: Chief Adviser Prof Muhammad Yunus has assured the Asian Network for Free Elections (ANFREL) that Bangladesh will hold a free, fair and inclusive election between December 2025 and June 2026. “We want to make sure the election will be the best in Bangladesh’s history and a milestone in the country’s democratic journey,” said the Chief Adviser. He made the remarks while meeting an ANFREL delegation at the State Guest House Jamuna in Dhaka on Thursday. The delegation included ANFREL Executive Director Brizza Rosales, Consultant for Bangladesh Elections and Democracy Programme May Butoy, Senior Programme Officer for Campaign and Advocacy Tharindu Abeyrathna, Programme Officer Ayan Rahman Khan and Programme Associate Afsana Amey.
ANFREL, a regional network of civil society organizations dedicated to the advancement of electoral democracy in Asia, has been actively supporting election observation, democratic reforms, and civic engagement across the region for over two decades. During the meeting, ANFREL shared its ongoing initiatives in Bangladesh, particularly its commitment to rebuilding independent, citizen-led election observation efforts. The delegation also discussed the ongoing activities to conduct stakeholder mapping and needs assessments aimed at identifying opportunities for strengthening civil society engagement and promoting electoral transparency. ANFREL expressed its appreciation for the opportunity to engage in dialogue with the Chief Adviser and reaffirmed its commitment to continued collaboration with stakeholders in Bangladesh to support transparent and credible elections.
