Zaima Rahman, daughter of Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) acting chief Tarique Rahman, has entered national politics as her family returns to Dhaka from 17 years in London exile. A London-trained barrister, Zaima visited Bangladesh alongside her parents and has completed voter registration ahead of the February 2026 general election, raising speculation about her political future. While she hasn’t announced any formal role or candidacy, her increased visibility signals a potential new generation within the BNP. Her return coincides with her father’s high-profile political comeback as the party seeks to expand its appeal amid a tense election season. (PC: X)
