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...
In an astonishing and deeply polarizing turn of events, the Awami League—Bangladesh’s oldest, most influential, and historically pivotal political party—has been banned. Its offices shuttered, its digital presence scrubbed, its top leaders either imprisoned or forced into exile. The very party that led the nation to independenc...
What was once a flourishing nation with dreams of golden harvests has been reduced to a garden of despair. Under the shadow of his Nobel Prize, Dr. Muhammad Yunus has led Bangladesh into one of the darkest chapters in its history. His nine-month rule has delivered not progress, but devastation — economic collapse, social disintegration, an...
Bangladesh is now facing a grim reality where speaking for truth and justice requires first checking whether your words might be interpreted as supportive of the Awami League—something that could provoke Yunus’s fascist mob. If you present accurate facts about the Liberation War, secularism, or even Tagore’s national anthem, th...
Throughout Bangladesh’s history, we’ve seen incompetent leaders from the BNP, Jatiya Party, Islamist militants, and even the military. Some were ineffective, others directionless. But Dr. Muhammad Yunus stands apart—for being a failure of historic proportions. In one word: Super Flop.
The hurried announcement to block activities of the Bangladesh Awami League in cyberspace has exposed the desperation of the illegal Yunus regime to impose a manufactured narrative on the people of Bangladesh. The abuse of state organs to restrict social media handles presenting the Awami League is another tool unleashed by the regime to intimid...
In a brazen sign of weaponization of law enforcement by Yunus regime, cops allowed a mob comprised of top Yunus advocates and supporters from Yunus backed National Citizens Party to hold a staged sit-in right in front of Yunus’s official residence Jamuna for hours only because these crowds are demanding ban on Awami League. Joined by the ...
Following August 5, 2024, the media sector has experienced what many are calling a brutal "purge." Estimates suggest that over 2,000 journalists have been laid off from television stations, newspapers, and digital outlets. Their only offense: refusing to toe the government line, practicing impartial journalism, or daring to pursue investigative ...
The Bangladesh Awami League expresses deep concern and strong condemnation over the recent policy decision made by the illegal and unconstitutional occupying fascist government of Yunus to grant a corridor in the area bordering Myanmar. This region has long been a conflict zone between the Myanmar government and the Arakan Army. Furthermore, it...
In recent developments, serious questions have emerged about the Yunus-led interim government’s claims of transparency and integrity. Despite lofty declarations made abroad, mounting evidence suggests a reality riddled with corruption, favoritism, and abuse of power.
It’s a terrifying time to be a woman in Bangladesh right now. Once a nation that showed glimpses of progress in empowering women, Bangladesh is now witnessing an alarming backslide in safety, dignity, and basic human rights. Every day brings new stories of violence, harassment, and injustice. From city streets to rural villages, w...
Despite claims of economic mismanagement under Sheikh Hasina, Bangladesh’s debt-to-GDP ratio remained a modest 36%—far below the IMF’s 77% threshold. In contrast, under the Yunus regime, foreign currency reserves have stagnated with zero growth over the past eight months, raising serious concerns about economic stewardship and transparency.
Dr. Rashid Askari: The recent revelation of Nobel Laureate Muhammad Yunus being accused of tax evasion by the Bangladesh government has sent shockwaves through the country and the international community. As a renowned economist, pioneer of microcredit and a champion of poverty alleviation, Dr. Yunus' alleged involvement in such financial misco...
Hiren Pandit:Did the Nobel Peace Prize laureate Muhammad Yunus again use a new strategy to spread propaganda against the Bangladesh government? Victims of unfair behavior of the current government, it has been alleged. But, the ad did not mention any specific information about the type of abuse or assault Dr. Yunus was subjected to. It does not ...
Sufi Faruq: The other day I was going through an article by Mohiuddin Ahmed on 1/11 in the Prothom Alo Eid Special, and I found it quite intriguing. In the article, Ahmed claimed that Nobel Laureate Professor Muhammad Yunus had turned down the army’s offer to become the chief of the caretaker government. He claimed then army chief General...
