lists of political parties in Bangladesh.
Bangladesh has a fading two-party system, which means that there are two dominant political parties, with extreme difficulty for anybody to achieve electoral success under the banner of another party.
However, though the center-left Awami League and center-right BNP dominatedBangladesh politics for a long time, currently both are heading coalitions of like-minded parties with theAL leading the secular and liberal elements while BNP is rallying the right-of-centre parties.
