Bangladesh's political history and current affairs:
--------------------------------------------------------------
---quote---
From the 13th century A.D. the Buddhists and Hindus were swamped by the flood of Muslim conquerors and the tide of Islam up to 18th century.

From the 15th century, the Europeans, namely Portuguese, Dutch, French and British traders exerted an economic influence over the region.

The Language Movement of 1952 to recognize Bangla as a state language may be termed as the first step towards independence.

Political and economic deprivation of the Bengalees prompted Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the Father of the Nation, to put forward in 1966 his historic six points, the "Magna Carta" which in effect structured the foundation for East Pakistan's future independence.

Father of the Nation Bangahandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was the founder- president of Bangladesh. He was subsequently assassinated on 15th August, 1975 by a group of conspirators. After 21 years of military and authoritarian rule, Bangabandhu's party-Bangladesh Awami League led by his illustrious daughter Sheikh Hasina, swept hack to power through a very free and fair parliamentary election held under a Caretaker Government in June. 1996.

A fair and free election was held on 29th December, 2008. Everyone enjoyed their voting power in a festive atmosphere. This election is a milestone in the history of Bangladesh. Sheikh Hasina is the current Prime Minister.

Sheikh Hasina's Awami League and former prime minister Khaleda Zia's the rival Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) are the major political parties.
