Chief Adviser Prof Muhammad Yunus on thrusday said that the national election could be held in December.While joining an interactive plenary session at the World Governments Summit 2025 in Dubai, Yunus suggested that the election would take place as early as possible, "probably in December this year".

The session was moderated by Becky Anderson of CNN at the WGS Conference Venue. Yunus is currently visiting the United Arab Emirates to attend the summit.
In response to a query, Yunus said that some of the interim government's priorities include ensuring law and order and rebuilding the country, society, and institutions, which he said had completely failed under the previous autocratic government led by Sheikh Hasina.
To rebuild the country, the government is going through a process of reforms. It has established 15 different reform commissions focusing on law and order, police administration, the constitution, the election system, and other areas, he said.
"These commissions are reporting back with their suggestions and recommendations on necessary changes. Now, we have what we call a consensus-building commission. We will go to the political parties and so on, see which are the recommendations all agree on," he said.
"So that we take that as a charter and then implement an important election," Yunus added.
