Statement by the Bangladesh Awami League Protesting Obstruction of the Historic March 7 Speech, Repression, and Arrests
—
March 7 is an unforgettable day in the life of the Bengali nation. The decisive struggle for the establishment of the state of Bangladesh effectively began on March 7, 1971, and concluded on January 10, 1972. The war that began with Bangabandhu’s historic speech on March 7 reached its final culmination with the Father of the Nation’s return to his homeland.

In the past, many military, civilian, and so-called “civil society” governments attempted to erase March 7 from history. However, the spontaneous remembrance of the masses only increased its significance. Today, it has been recognized by UNESCO as part of the “Memory of the World” documentary heritage.

It is deeply regrettable that the current government appears to be following the same path as those previous governments. Treating the playing of Bangabandhu’s historic March 7 speech as a crime, police from Shahbagh Police Station yesterday arrested several students of Dhaka University. Before the arrests, extremists reportedly subjected them to abuse and torture.

Meanwhile, at the house on Dhanmondi Road 32 — which has already been reduced to ruins due to attacks and vandalism by militants — several rickshaw pullers were arrested simply for paying respect to the memory of the Father of the Nation at that historic site. They were later sent to court under cases filed under the Anti-Terrorism Act. In the same way, in different parts of the country, many leaders and activists have faced harassment and mob attacks for the same reason. This raises a serious question: does the country truly have a functioning government?

Regarding such arrests and repression, we would only say this: learn from history. As an established truth of history, March 7 and the Father of the Nation, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, will remain eternally remembered and continue to shine ever more brightly. No falsehood or distorted history will be able to suppress that truth.

Joy Bangla
Joy Bangabandhu
Long live Bangladesh.⁩

Bangladesh has been weaponised by terrorists to inflict terror on liberal students deemed as dissenters.

For hours Rahid khan Pavel, a student of Dhaka University, was tortured. Even the attackers used motorbike lock pads and sticks to inflict damage on his body. He was dragged through several places before the attackers left him in front of police station in Shahbagh. And the cops did not arrest any of the attackers. Yet these fanatical activists justified this brazen rights abuse under facade of anti discrimination platform, projected as representative of Gen Z that brought regime change in Bangladesh in 2024. After regime change, this very militia group has been carrying out atrocities including mob killing of dissenters.

His name is Pavel, a Philosophy student at Dhaka University (2020–21). An orphan who survives by giving private tuition to 5 students and paying his own living costs. A regular student, not politically active.

Yesterday, after posting the 7 March speech on Facebook, he was taken from a sehri table at the BUET canteen and brutally beaten for hours by members of “Students Against Discrimination” terror group, then left at Shahbag Police Station in critical condition.

Those reportedly involved:
• Sardar Nadim Mahmud Shuvo (Philosophy, 2021–22)
• Hasib Al Islam (Sociology, 2020–21)
• Saifullah (2020–21, Muhsin Hall)
• Sarba Mitra Chakma (Sociology, 2022–23)
• And others.

⁨The Queue at Dhanmondi 27 Shows Who Has Lost Their Breathing Space
-----
The long line of people waiting to purchase goods from the Trading Corporation of Bangladesh (TCB) at Dhanmondi 27 is not merely a snapshot of the marketplace — it is a stark reflection of the times. Many of those standing in line are clearly from the middle class. People who once managed their households with dignity now find themselves compelled to queue for essential commodities.

When the Bangladesh Awami League was in power, there was no such widespread desperation in the markets — at least, that is what many people are now saying. Food self-sufficiency was not just a slogan; in reality, people felt a minimum level of security. The middle class did not see its sense of stability collapse, and cooking fires in low-income households burned regularly.

Today, the situation has reached a point where even in one of Dhaka’s most developed neighbourhoods, Dhanmondi, people must stand in line seeking relief. It is not difficult to imagine how much deeper the hardship runs in remote villages, where income opportunities are far more limited.

Hunger breaks people. Shame, dignity, social standing — all are overshadowed by the struggle to survive. This scene makes clear that when stability is lost, it is ordinary people who pay the highest price.

Grand speeches about the economy cannot conceal reality. People’s sense of relief, market stability, and access to daily necessities are the true indicators. The line at Dhanmondi 27 raises hard questions about those very indicators.⁩

Arrest Police Killer Mahdi Hasan: India must not be a safe haven for terrorists

As tensions simmer across the border in Bangladesh following the violent 2024 anti-Hasina protests, a chilling figure from that chaos has surfaced in India: Ahmed Reza Hasan Mahdi, also known as Mahdi Hasan, the self-confessed killer of a Hindu police officer. Activists and intelligence watchers are raising alarms that Mahdi, a district-level leader of Bangladesh’s Anti-Discrimination Student Movement (SAD), is using Indian soil as a stepping stone to evade justice.

How USAID funded extremism by using radical students in Bangladesh
By ABM Sirajul Hossain

Although we sarcastically say that Prothom Alo, The Daily Star, and certain NGOs have been working for the past 25 years—on behalf of George Soros and the American deep state—to prepare a youth-led “colour revolution” or “velvet revolution,” they have been severely deceived by covert fundamentalist groups and Islamist terrorist youth elements lurking in the shadows. While the sarcasm holds some truth, it is only partial.

Bangladesh heads to the polls on Feb 12 — but without its largest political party.

The Awami League remains banned under the Anti-Terrorism Act, raising serious questions about the credibility of the election. Human rights groups warn of political repression, minority violence, and the silencing of journalists under the interim regime.

Australia and Western democracies continue funding and engaging with a process many fear is neither free nor inclusive.

Is this democracy — or a dangerous precedent?

Watch the hypocrisy of Jamaat’s Ameer. The moment his tweet sparked backlash, he or his team rushed to claim the account was “hacked” and has now been “recovered.”

Funny thing is, the same account kept posting perfectly normal tweets throughout the last 24 hours.

When words backfire, blame the hacker. Classic damage control.
