BKP joined the then 18 Party Alliance led by Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) in 2012- and remained an active member even after the alliance became inactive and until the alliance's disbandment. However, Kallyan Party remains a strong ally of the BNP, opposing the current governing party, the Bangladesh Awami League.[1][2][3]
