Khalek Newaz Khan

politician Bangladesh

Khalek Newaz Khan was a prominent student leader in the 1950s, known for his significant role in the historic provincial elections of 1954 in East Pakistan (now Bangladesh). He made headlines when he defeated the chief minister Nurul Amin, representing a significant political shift during a time when the Awami League was the largest party in the United Front coalition. His victory was seen as a triumph for the younger generation and a beacon of hope for electoral integrity, as it was one of the few instances of fair elections under a party government, contrasting sharply with the subsequent political landscape that saw rampant electoral manipulation.
