The Bangladesh Nationalist Party (Bengali: বাংলাদেশ জাতীয়তাবাদী দল, romanized: Bangladesh Jatiotabadi Dal),[c] popularly abbreviated as BNP,[d] is a major political party in Bangladesh. Founded on 1 September 1978 by former president of Bangladesh, Ziaur Rahman with a view of uniting people with a nationalist ideology, the BNP later became one of the two dominant parties in Bangladesh, along with its archrival, the Awami League. Initially a big tentcentrist party, it later moved towards more right-wing politics.[9]
Known as the "Party of the Freedom Fighters of the Battlefield",[9] BNP was founded by Ziaur Rahman after the presidential election of 1978 and remained in its leadership until his assassination in 1981. Following Rahman's assassination, his widow, Khaleda Zia, took over leadership of the party and presided as chairperson until her imprisonment, in 2018. Since then, Tarique Rahman, the son of Rahman and Zia, has served as acting chairperson and has run the affairs of the party from London.[10 • C O N F I D E N T I A L DHAKA 001143 SIPDIS VISAS DEPT FOR INL, SCA E.O. 12958: DECL: 11/03/2009 TAGS: ASEC, CVIS, ECON, KCOR, KCRM, KFRD, PGOV, PREL SUBJECT: VISAS DONKEY CORRUPTION 212(F) (RAHMAN, TARIQUE) REF: A.
