Several women members of Bangladesh's National Citizens Party (NCP) have expressed disillusionment and anger following the party's alliance with the Jamaat-e-Islami for the upcoming election. Two leaders have resigned, and others have publicly criticized the move, citing a betrayal of the party's values and the spirit of the previous anti-government protests. Concerns have been raised that the NCP, formed by student activists, may have overlooked the Jamaat's influence on some of its members.
