The Bangladesh Minority Janata Party (BMJP, Bengali: বাংলাদেশ মাইনরিটি জনতা পার্টি) is a political party in Bangladesh, focused on the rights of minority communities, formed in 2017.[1][2]

The party is headquartered in Dhaka.[2][3] It states that its principles are "Assertiveness on democracy, secularism alongside freedom of all religions, establishment of non-communal political spirit and socialism so called absorption free society and social fair justice."[2]

The Bangladesh Minority Janata Party's election symbol is a goose, and its slogan is "joy to win the humanity."[2]

Reporter at Prothom Alo and the Bangla Tribune noted that the BJMP was formed around the same time as the Bangladesh Janata Party, another new similarly named political party focused on Bangladesh's Hindu minority.[4][5]
