As Jamaat-e-Islami resurfaces in Bangladesh politics, what role will it play in a post-Hasina era

The article discusses the re-emergence of Jamaat-e-Islami (JeI) in Bangladesh's political landscape, particularly in the context of a potential post-Sheikh Hasina era. JeI, which was banned from participating in elections due to its controversial stance on Bangladesh's independence and its links to war crimes during the 1971 Liberation War, has been attempting to regain political ground. The party has been engaging in grassroots activities, legal battles to regain its registration, and has been vocal about its opposition to the current government's policies. Analysts suggest that JeI could play a significant role if there is a shift in power, possibly aligning with other opposition parties or influencing the political discourse with its Islamist ideology. However, its return to mainstream politics is fraught with challenges, including public sentiment against its past actions, legal hurdles, and the government's firm stance against its political participation. The article also touches upon the broader implications of JeI's political maneuvers in a country where secularism and religious politics are contentious issues.
