Bangladesh polls today

Dhaka: History is in the making across the border as our neighbouring nation braces for the most significant vote in decades. Bangladesh is all set to hold its general election on Wednesday, marking a potential turning point for democracy in South Asia.

This massive democratic exercise involves over 12.77 crore eligible voters who will head to polling stations to elect representatives for 299 parliamentary seats. Election for one seat has been paused due to the sudden death of a candidate.
