POV tags for History and 2007-8 sections[edit]

Both these sections need to be cleaned up, the first is basically a party press release for the BNP in power, the second has a number of unverified claims which should at the very least be referenced and the language is POV, especially the last part.--Goldsztajn (talk) 23:04, 25 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Introduction[edit]

Edited the previous one into a more comprehensive one. --ChaudhryAzan (talk) 16:01, 25 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Khondker Delwar Hossain[edit]

Removing Khondker Delwar's name from the list of BNP leadership, because he's dead.(16-03-2011) [1]. Rest in peace. Ratibgreat (talk) 06:28, 21 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

A drink for the BAL party[edit]

this is , my god, an edited press release from BNP's opponent, BAL. I doubt even the claims made about bnp being "center-right" and BAL being "center-left" is a mere hip dialogue made popular by BAL devotees. Even being the most corrupted nation isnt enough for us. Why do we take sides even at a Wikipedia article? POV tags since 2009 and edits with "Updates" like Zia thrown from her home in November 2010? Do you want Bangladesh to be like this forever? You think siding with ONE party has got anything to do with REFORM? Shame on you fools. Application of secateurs on your dorsal extrimities would belittle the crime you perpetrated just now.180.234.203.202 (talk) 17:31, 29 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

please can The BAL become a less dictatorship against B.N.P and the nation of Bangladesh. I would rather request the PM to offer a fair election. Maviyakhatun (talk) 09:46, 4 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Paragraph related to Pakistan ISI connection[edit]

The information was wrong which has already been proved by the then ISI head interview with newspaper. Link: http://dailynayadiganta.com/details/36570 . http://www.timesofassam.com/international/bangladesh-government-misled-by-khaleej-times/ . So I deleted the paragraph. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 114.130.28.106 (talk) 04:42, 22 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Info without referece deleted[edit]

"It is also seen to distrust Bangladesh's large neighbour India and often opposes cooperation with the neighboring country in combating terrorism and establishing regional connectivity. " This sentence has a major allegation which has no reference at all. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 114.130.28.106 (talk) 04:47, 22 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Ideology[edit]

Despite some sources I've seen saying the party leans conservative, this one seems to posit that the party has no consistent ideology, and is instead a big tent party simply in opposition to the Awami League. HapHaxion (talk / contribs) 22:11, 31 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Permission to edit 'Ideology' section?[edit]

May I take a stab at the 'ideology' section of this page, looks like it doesn't really about the party's policies and I can try to clean it up a bit by going into their economic, social, and foreign policy platforms? 74.108.7.29 (talk) 23:56, 25 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Source misinterpretation[edit]

None of the sources cited in the article say that BNP's religion is Islam. That is a serious source misrepresentation which could result in a sanction for any editor reinserting this. The Independent article said, "Politics in Bangladesh has been dominated for years by the rivalry between Ms Hasina's centre-left, socially and economically liberal Awami League and the more right-wing BNP with Begum Zia at its helm." - more right-wing than centre-left means centre-right, not entirely right-wing.

 Not done: I presume you are making the same request you stated in your reply to #Extended-confirmed-protected edit request on 7 November 2023 (2), in which case the answer is no. The source says "...and the more right-wing BNP with Ms Zia at its helm." Do not attempt to mislead editors by misquoting sources in your citations.

Conservative or liberal conservative?[edit]

@Helper201 as I mentioned during my edit, an AL website describes BNP right-wing conservative party in a fascist manner, generally what oppositions do specially in South Asian politics. So we can't add conservatism & right-wing in Wikipedia, cause it would reflect AL's point of view. Which goes against WP:ADVOCACY.

Also conservatism & rightism seemed to be incorrect to me for a long time. BNP isn't ultranationalist like the LDP in Japan or Islamist like Jamaat in Bangladesh. We have also seen that BNP supports women empowerment, social & economic justice & most recently liberal democracy. So it's not right for sure, at least currently. More recent sources show BNP as centre-right also. I couldn’t change for Wikipedia policies & lack of references.

Now, neither conservatism or liberal conservatism can be found directly in any sources. But the lack of evidence isn't the evidence of lackness. We have to establish a political identity of BNP. Nationalism doesn't determine political identity of any party, other factors needed to determine it's centrist, centre-right or rightist. AL's is already left empty for a long time. Concerning the recent activities of BNP, I think it would be more accurate to add liberal conservatism. Conservatism can be remained but it seems unlikely with the centre-right politics. Also, as I mentioned previously, it would reflect AL's viewpoint. So, I support liberal conservatism to be added to match with the article infos. Wiki N Islam (talk) 04:35, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
