Reports from multiple Indian outlets surrounding Bangladesh’s upcoming parliamentary election show a consistent narrative portraying Jamaat-e-Islami as a destabilizing and extremist force. Publications such as Firstpost, Indian Express, Anandabazar Patrika, and Republic Bangla have framed Jamaat’s political resurgence as a security threat, while downplaying its student wing’s electoral victories. Analysts cited in the report argue that this coverage reflects a deliberate attempt to isolate Jamaat politically and influence Bangladesh’s internal dynamics.
Diplomatic observers note that following the fall of the Awami League, India is eager to rebuild influence in Dhaka by aligning with the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP). However, Delhi reportedly views Jamaat as a “red line” and seeks to pressure BNP to sever ties with it. Indian media’s portrayal of Jamaat as “Pakistan-leaning” and “anti-India” is seen as part of this strategy.
Experts warn that if such media campaigns continue, they could strain Bangladesh-India relations and fuel anti-India sentiment among the Bangladeshi public.
