The interim government of Bangladesh, led by Muhammad Yunus, has restructured a five-member commission to probe alleged irregularities in the 2014, 2018, and 2024 elections held under the Awami League. The move comes amid rising criticism over the credibility of those polls, both domestically and internationally, according to Firstpost.

The new commission, headed by retired Justice Shamim Hasnain, includes the same members as the previous panel. Its mandate is to review election-related complaints and propose reforms to ensure free and fair future elections. The deadline for submitting its report has been extended to October 31.
