First Vijay Diwas after Hasina left the country This was the first Victory Day in Bangladesh after former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina left the country. In Bangladesh, on June 5, the High Court had implemented 30% quota system in jobs, after which the students of universities in Dhaka were protesting. This reservation was being given to the families of freedom fighters.
When this reservation was abolished, students started demanding the resignation of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. Within no time, a large number of students and common people came out on the streets against the Prime Minister and his government. Two months after this protest, on August 5, Sheikh Hasina resigned from the post of Prime Minister and left Bangladesh and came to India. After this the army took command of the country.
After the violent protests, Sheikh Hasina left the country and came to India in a helicopter.
Hasina called Mohammad Yunus a fascist Former Prime Minister of Bangladesh Sheikh Hasina has called the head of the interim government Mohammad Yunus a fascist. In a statement issued on Sunday evening, a day before Bangladesh’s Victory Day, Hasina said Mohammad Yunus was leading a fascist government. This government is anti-independence and supporter of fundamentalists.
Sheikh Hasina said that anti-national forces captured power illegally and unconstitutionally through domestic and foreign conspiracies.
Hasina said that the aim of Mohammad Yunus’ government is to create anger in the minds of people against those who fought for freedom. This government is trying to erase the history and spirit of the liberation war.
