Bangladeshi journalist Mahfuz Anam has claimed that formation of new political party of students is expected as they have toppled Sheikh Hasina that BNP couldn't do something that no other political party could do.

Daily Star editor also termed Jamaat-e-Islami as a ‘very big factor in Bangladesh's politics’ during an interview with India Today recently.

“So now in the present state the coming of the student party is a new element, you can say we are yet to see. but it is also to be understood that once they form a political party the students will have to now if you like fall into a political culture before that they were ready to slogan everything they toppled Hasina so there's a lot of if you like sense of accomplishment something that BNP couldn't do something that no other political party could do,” says Anam,  president at Editors' Council.

In India Today’s episode 'Nothing but the Truth' conducted by Raj Chengappa, the discussants analyse the internal situation in Bangladesh, the performance of the interim government.

“Okay, now the coming of this new political party is definitely something. I personally look forward to it simply because, as you have said, we have been in a politically binary situation, BNP or the Awami League,” says Mahfuz Anam.

BNP, they really oscillated on a five-year term before Hasina settled for last 15 years but before that with from 1991, the year we call the restoration of democracy, which marks the fall of General Hussain Muhammad Ershad, according to the editor.

Anam further mentioned that students did it in a matter of several months of agitation so that sense of confidence still permeates among them.

“They have the sense that they can transform Bangladesh the way they won, so that confidence is there. But when they come to the political reality and particularly the election, now the election is a very significant development we are all looking forward to,” he added.

BNP, on the other hand, is literally sitting on the outside of the door to enter into power, according to Mahfuz Anam.

“Because they were the two big parties BNP and Awami League is now in a way isolated. So BNP is really waiting in waiting in the wings to come. And Jamaat-e-Islami, which is now a very big factor in Bangladesh's politics. They are ambivalent, they don't mind waiting because you know, religion-based parties they have a timeline, big, they are all willing to wait you know 10 15 years they don't mind, on the other hand so they they're ambivalent about it, they want election If it happens they will participate,” he added.
