What will the “Truth and Healing Commission” do?
With the slogan "Bangladesh First," the BNP has announced a 51-point manifesto for the 13th National Parliamentary Election. Under the banner "We will work, we will build the nation," the party has made nine major commitments to repair the state over the next five years. The manifesto also includes several pledges, one of the most notable being the formation of a "Truth and Healing Commission." But what is this commission? Why does the BNP feel the need to establish it? And where else in the world have such commissions been formed?
