Heavy Chaos in Bangladesh: Sheikh Hasina Leaves Country Amid Protests

Bangladesh is going through a drastic dramatic event right now! Hundreds of protesters including Students and normal people have stormed Ganobhaban after the prime minister Sheikh Hasina resigned and fled from the country. After the official crib of the Prime Minister, reports are saying that she is nowhere to be found within the country. This all happened after months of student protests, which turned the nation upside down.

Bangladesh Student Movement Forces PM Sheikh Hasina to Leave the Country”

Former PM and BNP leader Khaleda Zia finally spoke out on Monday, telling everyone to chill and keep the peace. Her message was backed up by BNP’s acting chairman Tarique Rahman. Shamsuddin Didar from the BNP press team confirmed this in a statement to Prothom Alo. In a surprising twist, Hasina has reportedly landed in India. Rahul Gandhi, the Leader of the Opposition, has already met with External Affairs Minister Dr. S. Jaishankar to get the scoop. Jaishankar is set to address the Bangladesh situation in parliament tomorrow.

The tipping point? Hasina resigned and bolted from Bangladesh on Monday, just before protesters crashed into her residence. Army Chief Waqar-uz-Zaman confirmed her resignation on TV, saying an interim government would step in. “I’m taking all responsibility for the country. Please cooperate,” he said around 4 pm.

Rumor has it, that Hasina and her sister may have headed to Tripura’s Agartala in India. AFP reports she tried to record a farewell speech but couldn’t get the chance. Despite a national curfew, thousands of protesters smashed their way into Ganobhaban, with security forces all over the streets. Today’s clashes in Dhaka alone have left six people dead. The roots of this chaos go back to July when student protests blew up over a controversial government job quota system. Things got heated on July 16 when clashes broke out at Dhaka University between protesters and pro-government supporters, leading to a week of chaos.

By July 21, the Supreme Court axed most of the quota system, but the protests reignited over the weekend. Protesters demanded an apology from Hasina for the violence. The group ‘Students Against Discrimination’ led the charge, calling for Hasina’s resignation. Sunday’s clashes were brutal, with over 100 people dead as activists pushed for a nationwide non-cooperation movement. On Monday, the ‘Long March to Dhaka’ happened in which the protesters broke the curfew and marched to attack Hasina. Although a nationwide shutdown was going on, they made it to her residence, causing the current crisis.
