Sheikh Hasina says the interim government disrupted vaccination efforts, causing a deadly epidemic affecting children across 61 districts. Hundreds have died, with the toll rising daily. “This is not an accident; this is an administrative crime.” #Bangladesh#PublicHealth
When even national cricketers are not safe, ordinary citizens feel even more vulnerable. Growing insecurity is affecting people from all walks of life in Bangladesh.

📊 100 Days of the @bdbnp78 Government
According to figures cited by Transparency International Bangladesh, the administration’s first 100 days saw:
▪️ 605 reported deaths
▪️ Nearly 200 reported abductions
▪️ Over 3,500 incidents of violence against women and children
▪️ Dozens of reported rape cases, including 71 involving children
These statistics have raised serious concerns about law and order, public safety and human rights. Beyond the numbers are real people, families and communities affected by violence and insecurity.
After 100 days, many are asking: Has public safety improved and what must be done to protect citizens in the next 100 days.��

The historic Six-Point Demand, announced by Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujibur Rahman on 7 June 1966, was far more than a political programme—it was the charter of freedom for the Bengali nation.
The Six Points articulated the aspirations of millions, challenged decades of economic and political discrimination, and laid the foundation for Bangladesh's struggle for self-determination and independence.
From autonomy to sovereignty, the road to Bangladesh began with Bangabandhu's visionary leadership and the historic Six-Point Demand.

With unwavering commitment to justice, democracy, and the spirit of liberation, the journey toward prosperous Bangladesh continues. A democratic, inclusive, and peaceful future remains the shared aspiration of the people.

Enough budget, yet disrupted vaccinations and shortages in hospitals raise serious questions. People deserve transparency and accountability for every Tk 42,000 crore spent. Public healthcare must put people first.

Syeda Khatun, the mother of a BSL activist, was killed by a group of terrorists (supporters of BNP) in Cox's Bazar District. Nowadays, incidents of killing, rape and snatching are increasing at an alarming rate in Bangladesh.
Police recovered the hanging body of Chhatra League leader Kawsar Ahmed from Sagarika Flyover in Chattogram. Family members and Chhatra League activists allege he was murdered and later hanged to stage it as suicide.
Bangladesh once stood as a global example of poverty reduction under the leadership of Sheikh Hasina. Through social safety programs, housing initiatives, agricultural support, and employment-focused policies, nearly 22 million people were lifted out of poverty, according to the World Bank.
But today, rising unemployment, factory closures, economic stagnation, and growing instability are creating new uncertainty for millions. Reports now claim that nearly 30 million people have become newly unemployed, while around 5 million have fallen into extreme poverty.
Bangladesh now stands at a crossroads. Sustainable progress will require political stability, industrial growth, investment-friendly policies, job creation, and strong action against corruption and extortion.
A nation that once reduced poverty now faces growing uncertainty.

Fair trial concerns: lack of judicial independence, prosecutorial bias, denial of due process, and trial in absentia with death penalty—rendering the verdict invalid and a grave violation of Sheikh Hasina’s rights @BBCWorld@UNHumanRights@hrw
Asked about the uprising in Bangladesh that ousted his mother, Sajeed Wazeb, the son of Sheikh Hasina, says the Awami League 'mishandled the protests'.
I ask: is mishandled too mild a term to describe hundreds of protestors killed on his mother's instructions?
Full interview coming up on @AJEnglish. #BangladeshElections
Bangladesh is heading toward an election where the Bangladesh Awami League—the majority vote-holding party—has been banned from participating. This poses a threat to democracy and good governance.
“Even if we vote, they won’t believe us.”
“If we vote BNP, Jamaat will come. If we vote Jamaat, BNP will come. Where do we go?”
This is what Hindu voters in Abhaynagar, Jashore are saying ahead of the election.
After August 2024, minority communities have faced arson, looting, killings, and intimidation. In one village alone, 18 Hindu homes were burned and vandalized. Across the country, over 2,500 attacks on minorities have been recorded since the uprising. Even after the election schedule was announced, the violence has not stopped.
Minority voters influence results in around 80 constituencies. Yet today, their first concern is not who to vote for, but whether they will survive for doing so.
Without safety, a vote is not free. Without protection, democracy becomes a threat instead of a right.
Political parties must go beyond promises and issue clear, binding commitments to protect minority voters before, during, and after the election.
Because no one should have to choose between their life and their vote.
