Insaniyat Biplob Bangladesh or Humanity Revolution Bangladesh[2] (Bengali: ইনসানিয়াত বিপ্লব বাংলাদেশ), commonly known as ইনসানিয়াত or Insaniyat, is a political party in Bangladesh founded by Allama Imam Hayat in 2010.[3]
Allama Imam Hayat promoted an ideology that emphasized the establishment of a state and a world based on authentic religious values and humanity. It has given rise to the formation of the Humanity Revolution Bangladesh, which was officially registered in 2023 in Bangladesh.
History
Humanity Revolution Bangladesh was officially established in 2010 as a new political party in Bangladesh. The party operates independently in Bangladesh and there is no evidence to suggest that they have formed alliances with other political parties or groups.
In 2017, Humanity Revolution Bangladesh applied to the Election Commission of Bangladesh for registration as a political party, but their application was initially rejected by the commission. Subsequently, Humanity Revolution Bangladesh filed a writ petition to the Appeal Division of the Supreme Court of Bangladesh, which ruled in favor of Humanity Revolution Bangladesh. Following the decision of the Appeal Division, the party was successfully registered.[4]
Ideology
Religious values and humanity-based universal political philosophy.
Symbol
Humanity Revolution Bangladesh has standardized the use of the white rose as their official symbol. This white rose is prominently embedded in the center of the party's logo. However, when it came to selecting an electoral symbol, they encountered a limitation. Another registered political party in the country, named Zaker Party, already had the rose as their electoral symbol.[5] [6]
Consequently, Humanity Revolution Bangladesh was unable to obtain the rose as their electoral symbol. Instead, they were assigned the symbol of an apple for the election. Despite this, the white rose continues to hold significance as the official symbol of Humanity Revolution Bangladesh and is featured prominently in their logo. [7]
Election of 2018
In 2017, the application of Humanity Revolution Bangladesh to be registered as a political party was rejected by the Election Commission. [8] As a result, the party decided to field independent candidates for the election. They had a total of 8 independent candidates participating in the election, but none of them were successful in winning a seat. The party believed that the election was rigged.
Each of the independent candidates had different electoral symbols assigned to them. The secretary general of the party, Mr. Rehan Afzal (Rahbar), contested the election with the symbol of an apple, while the remaining candidates all contested with the symbol of a lion.[9] The other candidates were Erfanul Hoque, Emdadul Hoque, Sabina Khatun Sabbi, Aref Sartaj, Milon Morshed, Sheikh Hanif, and Hasan Ahmed.
Among these candidates, Sabina Khatun Sabbi was the only female candidate in her constituency.[10] It seems that the party had additional candidates whose candidacies were considered void, but there is no further information provided about them.
