Tajnuva Zabin Rejects Alliance with Fundamentalists, Returns Parliamentary Ticket

• Tajnuva Zabin, NCP leader, resigned and returned her Dhaka-17 parliamentary ticket in protest.
• She opposed NCP's alliance with fundamentalist Jamaat-e-Islami, calling it a "well-planned deception."
• The alliance betrayed 125 candidates, dropping 95 at the last minute, preventing independent nominations.
• Zabin, a young leader from student movements, prioritized principles over power and political compromise.
• Other leaders, including Dr. Tasnim Zara, also resigned, with many women leaders opposing the Jamaat alliance.

Why It Matters: Tajnuva Zabin's principled stand against political compromise sets an example in Bangladeshi politics.
