[chottala.com] WikiLeaks: Khaleda knew her polls fate

WikiLeaks

Khaleda knew her polls fate

 

BNP Chairperson Khaleda Zia herself admitted before the proposed January 22, 2007 parliamentary polls that election performance of her four-party alliance would decrease to a great extent in comparison with the 2001 election.

She made the prediction when the then US ambassador Patricia A Butenis met her to discuss prevailing political situation on October 31, 2006, according to US diplomatic cables released by WikiLeaks on August 30 this year.

Khaleda's rival Sheikh Hasina was happy, in contrast, with BNP's popularity declining, and predicted that the Awami League-led grand alliance would net at least 220 out of 300 seats.

Asked to predict BNP's election performance the next day, Khaleda told Butenis, when the latter met her, that her alliance would win 180-190 seats, compared to the 220 in the immediate past parliament.

This outcome presumed support from the Jatiya Party (JP), "which she said Ershad (JP chairman) has already promised her", the confidential cable sent to Washington on November 2, 2006 said.

In 2001 elections, BNP alone won 193 seats out of the 300. The tally stood at 220 after incorporating the seats of its allies including Jamaat-e-Islami and those won by the coalition candidates in by-elections.

"(Khaleda) Zia insisted that, opposition assertions aside, her party has strong support from the Hindu community," Butenis wrote in the cable.

An active move was on for a few months then to convince Ershad to join the BNP-led alliance. But the former dictator had yet to give any decision in that regard.

In an apparent sign of development in the negotiation, two long-standing corruption charges against former president Ershad were dropped on August 24 after the investigating officer had told the court the charges could not be proven.

"Ershad has stated that he will join the ruling coalition if all corruption charges against him are satisfactorily resolved," Butenis wrote in a cable sent to Washington on August 24, 2006.

The former military ruler, in parallel, was continuing talks with the leaders of the AL-led electoral alliance to secure a better promise of accommodation in the new government after the polls.

After a "bargain", Ershad tied knots with Hasina frustrating Khaleda in early November of 2006.

With the elections scheduled for January 22 cancelled, the ninth parliamentary polls were held finally on December 29, 2008 after a series of drama, which included state of emergency, crackdown on politicians, detention of Khaleda and Hasina.

The result brought shock for BNP and its allies and surprising delight for AL-led coalition: the AL alone bagged 230 seats while the number went up to 262 incorporating the seats of its allies, and BNP-led four-party bagged 32 seats that included 29 seats of BNP.

Zia was the key shadow man

Says Lifschultz



Noted journalist Lawrence Lifschultz has said he believes former president Ziaur Rahman was the "key shadow man" behind the August 15, 1975 putsch. "I believe many more details about Ziaur Rahman's involvement in the August 15th events will emerge in the future. It is my assessment at this point in time that Zia played perhaps the most crucial of all roles," Lifschultz told BSS in an interview ahead of the National Mourning Day.

Zia had his own reasons for not leading the coup himself but "without his support, I do not believe the coup d'état could have moved forward", he added. "Zia was the key shadow man. Had he been against the coup he could have stopped it. Of course, it was his constitutional duty to do so. "Ziaur Rahman is a very complicated character. We need to understand in much greater depth how he operated in the shadows during these crucial times," said the US journalist.

He was the Bangladesh correspondent of Far Eastern Economic Review in the early 1970s. The Review later appointed him as its New Delhi-based South Asia correspondent.Lifschultz documented the tumultuous coups and counter-coups of the 70s in Bangladesh: An Unfinished Revolution.He is also acclaimed for his reports on India-Pak relations and Bosnian issues.
