How Yunus Sold Exclusion as Reform and Fooled the World Announced on October 17, 2025, the July Charter is being paraded as a national reform — but it is, in truth, a calculated deception staged to protect one man. Behind the polished speeches and diplomatic applause lies a hollow truth: those who represent nearly 60% of Bangladesh’...
Yunus’s Promise Turned into a Struggle for Survival The sound of sewing machines that once filled the air in Dhaka, Gazipur, and Narayanganj has gone quiet. The factories that used to keep Bangladesh’s economy alive are now shutting their doors one after another. Thousands of garment workers are out of work, wandering the streets, d...
She is the one who once gave Bangladesh its dream and Bangladesh, in turn, dreamt through her. When the Father of the Nation, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, was murdered along with his family, the reactionary forces sought to bury the dream of 1971. But it was under her leadership - Sheikh Hasina - that Bangladesh rose from that darkness. ...
“This week’s visit from the European Parliament’s Subcommittee on Human Rights to Bangladesh comes at a time of increasingly egregious assaults on Bangladesh’s hard-won democracy and the fundamental human rights of its own people. The EU delegation intends to use this visit to ‘learn more about the work of the inte...
The objective is not to prove Hasina guilty in the legal sense. It is to make her appear guilty in the public imagination, so that when history is written, her chapter can be closed not with respect but with disgrace. In that sense, the trials, testimonies, and headlines are not just about individuals; they are about rewriting the political DNA ...
Over the past year, Bangladesh has experienced an unprecedented deterioration in governance, law and order, and economic stability. Following the military-backed removal of Sheikh Hasina in August 2024, the interim government led by Muhammad Yunus has failed to restore basic security, protect human rights, or uphold democratic norms. The coun...
Introduction For more than a decade under the Awami League government, Bangladesh’s economy was recognized as one of the fastest-growing in South Asia. From 2009 to June 2024, under Awami League’s continuous leadership, the country gained international stature as an emerging economic power. But recently, political instability, decl...
The Sheikh Hasina government arrested Jubo League leader G.K. Shamim for corruption — but this illegal government released him. The Awami League government arrested the killers of Abrar Fahad — but this government let them escape. We arrested those involved in the notorious Gulshan Holey Artisan terrorist attack — you release...
This is an open letter to the honest, hard-working and patriotic people of Bangladesh. One year ago today, our nation witnessed the violent interruption of our hard-fought democracy, as an unelected regime seized power through unconstitutional means. It was a dark moment in our history, an affront to the will of the people, and a betrayal of ...
Al Jazeera has released a 35-minute report on the July–August 2024 violence in Bangladesh, purporting to investigate alleged human rights abuses. In reality, the documentary closely mirrors the narrative of the current regime led by Dr. Muhammad Yunus and appears designed to influence public opinion and judicial proceedings in favor of that admi...
We would like first to express our deep sorrow at the tragic events of last summer and the loss of life that occurred. It is a scandal that those events have since fuelled further chaos, violence, and death in Bangladesh. We believe the decisions made at the time by senior government officials were proportionate, taken in good faith, and aimed a...
What was once a rising star of South Asia is now spiraling into chaos—and at the heart of this collapse is an unelected regime with no mandate and no accountability. Bangladesh, under the interim government led by Muhammad Yunus and his circle of Western-backed technocrats, has veered dangerously off course. In the name of “stability...
We would like to reiterate our condemnation over the fact that scores of fake audio clips claiming to include voice of our president Sheikh Hasina have been manufactured and circulated on social media ostensibly by pro regime supporters and reproduced by media outlets to stage a media trial with wild claims like she authorized law enforc...
The commencement of the today's proceedings is yet another reminder of the concerning state into which Bangladesh has descended under the rule of its unelected, undemocratic leader Dr Muhammad Yunus. The UN itself expressed concerns over the lack of due process and fair trial concerns within the ICT, which, since Dr Yunus seized power, has be...
Since the ousting of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on August 5, 2024, Bangladesh has entered a perilous new chapter—not only politically but culturally. Under the unelected interim government led by Nobel Laureate Dr. Muhammad Yunus, the country has seen a coordinated campaign of vandalism, arson, and erasure targeting its cultural landmarks, spi...
A series of mysterious deaths and brutal repression of Bangladesh Awami League activists in various prisons across the country has sparked outrage and concern. Political analysts and rights groups assert that these are not isolated events but part of a well-coordinated, clandestine operation led by a Yunus-aligned shadow authority—one that...
On 7th June in 1966, the people of the then East Pakistan observed a general strike in the province in support of the Awami League's Six-Point demands of autonomy announced a few months earlier by Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. The strike, in the course of which a number of individuals were killed in police firing and a number of others were injured,...
In the guise of “advisors”—Nahid Islam, Asif Mahmud Sajib Bhuiyan, and Nurjahan Begum—these individuals have built an empire of corruption, hiding behind their personal assistants, aides, and officials, siphoning off hundreds of crores of taka.
Eight months into Dr Yunus's tenure, however, the initial optimism has all but vanished. The country is grappling with a deepening economic crisis, spiraling industrial shutdowns, rampant unemployment, and a freefall in foreign direct investment.
Founded in 1949, the Bangladesh Awami League led the nation to independence in 1971 under the leadership of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. The party has since been the cornerstone of Bangladesh’s democratic development, socio-economic progress, and global engagement. The targeting of such a party is a direct attack on the historical and demo...
