Democratic League (Bengali: ডেমোক্রেটিক লীগ) was a political party in Bangladesh founded by the former President Khondaker Mostaq Ahmad in 1978 after his release from prison.
The party was an attempt by Mostaq to return to national politics following his controversial role in the 15 August 1975 coup that resulted in the assassination of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the founding president of Bangladesh. The party never gained significant public support as Khondaker Mostaq Ahmad was considered a defector in the 15 August coup.
