My Recent Prediction Success Stories:

Beyond academia, I have engaged with the wider public through various media platforms due to my successful prediction stories. Since 2020, I have been invited to participate in television talk shows and news events in Bangladesh because of successfully predicting COVID-19-related statistics, the 2022 FIFA World Cup, the 2026 National election, and the 2026 FIFA World Cup. I have also contributed to newspaper articles on public health issues, the COVID-19 pandemic, epidemiology, population, environment-related issues, etc. From April 8, 2020, I published daily "A Daily Report on Coronavirus Status in Bangladesh" and continued until November 25, 2023, where I reported the prediction of Covid-19 casualties and all data analyses. A total of 963 such reports have been published (link).

• My 2026 FIFA World Cup Football Prediction:

My prediction was once again accurate: Spain defeated Argentina to become the 2026 FIFA World Cup champions, exactly as predicted before the tournament began. Building on the success of my 2022 FIFA World Cup prediction, I once again correctly predicted both the champion and the runners-up before the 2026 FIFA World Cup began. On 10 June 2026, I publicly shared a complete evidence-based prediction covering all 104 matches, including the teams progressing through every knockout stage, the semi-finalists, the finalists, and the eventual champion. The prediction was developed using a data-driven framework that combined FIFA rankings, team strength, recent form, historical World Cup performance, and statistical analysis. As the tournament progressed, the predictions demonstrated a high level of accuracy, correctly identifying many of the knockout-stage teams and outcomes, including the champion and runners-up. Several media outlets, including Ekattor TV, Channel24, T-sports, Green TV, Samakal, BanglaTribune, Kaler Kantha, Jagonews24, reported and discussed this prediction journey.

• My 2026 General National Election Prediction:

The 2026 Bangladesh national election prediction was prepared based on long-term voter trend analysis, supplemented by several reliable surveys and my own observational estimates on the electoral environment. Then it was published on Facebook on February 11, 2026. Assuming a free and fair election with stable voter preferences, the projected outcomes were BNP: 205–220 seats (with expected 49% votes), Jamaat–NCP: 60–70 seats (with expected 39% votes), Others: 10–30 seats (with expected 12% votes), with an expected turnout of around 58%. This projection was purely analytical in nature and not intended to influence any political party or candidate, with an estimated margin of error of about 5%. Remarkably, the actual outcomes were very closely aligned with these projections (BNP: 212 seats (with actual 51% votes), Jamaat–NCP: 77 seats (with actual 38% votes), Others: 8 seats(with actual 11% votes), turnout: 59.44%). The daily Banglastream reported this prediction performance, explaining its methodology.

• My 2022 FIFA World Cup Football Prediction:

A prediction (based on personal judgment) sheet [published on November 20, 2022], ahead of the World Cup, I shared my predictions on Facebook, forecasting results for all rounds, including the semi-finals, and promised to reveal the finalists later. On December 3, during a discussion on Ekattor TV, I predicted Argentina would beat France 3-2 in the final, which I also detailed in a Bangla Tribune article on December 5. Remarkably, my prediction was accurate: Argentina defeated France to become the 2022 World Cup champions. Other media outlets, including Samakal and Jagonews24, reported and discussed this prediction story.
