General elections were held in Bangladesh on 30 December 2018 to elect 300 directly-elected members of the Jatiya Sangsad.[1] The result was another landslide victory for the Awami League-led Grand Alliance led by Sheikh Hasina. The elections were marred by violence, and were widely considered by opposition politicians and the international community to be rigged.
According to political scientist Ali Riaz, the elections were not free and fair.[2] BBC News, among others, observed some apparent vote rigging by the Awami League.[3] Opposition leader Kamal Hossain rejected the results, calling it "farcical" and demanding fresh elections to be held under a neutral government. The Bangladesh Election Commission said it would investigate reported vote-rigging allegations from "across the country."[4][5] The election saw the use of electronic voting machines for the first time.[6]
