The East Pakistan Awami Muslim League was founded during a political activists' conference on 23 and 24 June 1949 in Puran Dhaka's KM Lane.
In 1955, the party dropped the word 'Muslim' from its name in a spirit of secularism, becoming the East Pakistan Awami League.
After independence, the party was renamed Bangladesh Awami League.
