Gono Odhikar Parishad (Bengali: গণ অধিকার পরিষদ, lit.'People's Rights Council', abbreviated as GOP), is one of the political parties in Bangladesh. On September 2, 2024, the party was officially registered with the Election Commission. Its electoral symbol is a truck.[1][2][3]

History

[edit]

The 'Bangladesh Sadharon Chhatra Odhikar Songrokkhon Parishad' was established on February 17, 2018.[4][5] On February 17, 2020, the organization was renamed Chhatra Odhikar Parishad.

The DUCSU election took place on February 25, 2019.[6][7][8][9] Leaders of the quota reform movement participated in the election, considering their influence and acceptance as a panel.[10][11] Despite allegations of irregularities and rigging in the election, two leaders of the quota reform movement won the positions of Vice President and Social Services Secretary.[12][13] This success contributed to the emergence of a potential new political trend within the broader student rights movement.

On October 26, 2021, at 12 noon on a Tuesday, the organization declared its transition into a political party.[14][15][16][17]
