Dhaka: Chief Adviser’s Press Secretary Shafiqul Alam has stated that the ‘Innovision Survey’ has reaffirmed the strong public support the interim government continues to enjoy. “With an approval rating nearing 80 percent after more than 13 months in office, this is a clear testament to the IG’s (interim government’s) effective governance and its successful stewardship of an economic recovery that is nearly unprecedented in the current global context,” Alam shared in a post on his verified Facebook account today.
According to Bangladesh Sangbad Sangstha, Innovision Consulting, a global management consulting firm, conducted the survey. The findings were presented earlier today at a roundtable titled ‘People’s Election Pulse Survey, Round 2: Report Launch’, held at the Azimur Rahman Conference Hall of The Daily Star Centre in the city.
Alam emphasized in his post that despite the claims of certain discredited economists-who often rely on selective data to push their narratives-Bangladesh is firmly back in business. “Exports are rising, imports are growing at a healthy pace, the balance of payments remains strong, and the exchange rate is stable. Likewise, contrary to alarmist portrayals, the law and order situation remains under control, as evidenced by police crime statistics,” he noted.
The press secretary also highlighted the public’s overwhelming intention to participate in the upcoming February election, with 95 percent indicating they plan to vote. “This is not only a strong signal of confidence in the credibility and inclusiveness of the electoral process, but also a reflection of a broader national sentiment: the Bangladeshi people have decisively moved on from the BAL (Bangladesh Awami League) era-despite the noise from certain YouTubers who once gave cover to crimes against humanity,” he added.
Alam concluded by stating that the people of Bangladesh have made up their minds. “The February (2026) election will be a defining moment in the nation’s democratic journey. And the Innovision Survey-the largest conducted in the past 14 months-tells that story clearly.”
