The caretaker government led by Nobel Peace Prize laureate Muhammad Yunus said elections could also be held in February, as demanded by the Bangladesh Nationalist Party. Jamaat-e-Islami, which has played a controversial role in the country's history, said it plans to mobilize a million people for rallies.
