Bangladesh election results 2026 updates: Tarique Rahman poised to be PM as Jamaat-e-Islami concedes

 Bangladesh’s Jamaat party conceded defeat in elections on Saturday (February 14, 2026), despite earlier alleging problems with the vote count, clearing the way for BNP leader Tarique Rahman to become Prime Minister.

Election Commission figures showed Mr. Rahman’s Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) had won a landslide victory in the elections, the first since a deadly 2024 uprising ousted the iron-fisted rule of Sheikh Hasina.

The success of Mr. Rahman, 60, marks a remarkable turnaround for a man who only returned to Bangladesh in December after 17 years in exile in Britain, far from Dhaka’s political storms.

A decisive mandate: On Tarique Rahman, the BNP, the Bangladesh result

Mr. Rahman, the scion of one of Bangladesh’s most powerful political dynasties, is expected to make a victory speech later on Saturday (February 14, 2026).

    But on Saturday (February 14, 2026), he conceded defeat.

    “In any genuine democratic journey, the true test of leadership is not only how we campaign, but how we respond to the verdict of the people,” Mr. Rahman said in a statement.
