Islami Andolan Bangladesh on Wednesday unveiled its election manifesto, titled “Jonoprattyashar Istahar” (Manifesto of Public Expectation), pledging to prioritize Shariah across all aspects of state governance if voted to power in the 13th national parliamentary election. The party announced a 30-point core manifesto, alongside 12 special programs, eight policy positions, six proposals for state reform, and 28 sector-wise development plans, aiming to establish what it described as a corruption-free, welfare-oriented, and just state. Addressing the program, Rezaul Karim said: “The manifesto of Islami Andolan Bangladesh is a pledge to the nation. Other commitments include ensuring workers’ rights and dignity, controlling soaring commodity prices by breaking illegal syndicates, making roads safer, and transforming Bangladesh into a developed welfare state within 15 years. Ahead of an election, a manifesto is presented to the nation to outline a party’s principles, vision, and roadmap for nation-building.”
