Bangladesh votes in its first election since the 2024 Gen Z uprising that ousted Hasina
Voters across Bangladesh are casting ballots in a parliamentary election seen as a key test for the country’s democracy after years of political unrest. More than 127 million people are eligible to vote in the first election since former prime minister Sheikh Hasina’s government collapsed in 2024 following mass protests often described as a Gen Z-led uprising. Results are expected on Friday, as FRANCE 24's Navodita Kumari explains.
