Pakistan National CongressBangladesh National Congress – There is no proof that Pakistan National Congress existed in Pakistan after Bangladesh Liberation War. The sources in the article clearly indicated that Pakistan National Congress became Bangladesh National Congress in 1971. It also participated in the 1973 Bangladeshi general election. On the other hand, Pakistan National Congress didn’t join 1977 Pakistani general election. In that sense, Bangladesh National Congress is the only successor of the Pakistan National Congress. Also, there is no proof we find that will lead us to believe that many politicians from West Pakistan were in this party, the names of the PNC politicians from the sources we find are mostly from East Pakistan which is now Bangladesh. It should be renamed to Bangladesh National Congress. However, if anyone can show us proofs stating many West Pakistani politicians were in that party then I would propose to rename it as "National Congress (1947–1975)".

  • The article should be split into Pakistani National Congress and Bangladeshi National Conference. These are two separate entities as to make the article solely about a Bangladeshi National Congress would be an anachronism. East Bengal was a part of Pakistan before this political party had activity in the state of Pakistan. Zakaria ښه راغلاست (talk) 14:22, 7 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
