The army's role, student protests, and the fight against the quota system... The coup's inner tale: Sheikh Hasina's

Bangladesh has descended into violence. Sheikh Hasina, the prime minister, has resigned. Sheikh Hasina also departed Bangladesh after resigning. Sheikh Hasina is reportedly welcome to visit Delhi. Sheikh Rehana, her sister, was with her.

 

General Waqar-uz-Zaman, the head of the Bangladesh Army, declared the establishment of a provisional administration. He also pleaded with the populace to uphold the peace.

 

Sheikh Hasina's office was also set on fire by the demonstrators after she departed. Awami League employees of his party are being sought down and murdered. Additionally, the Prime Minister's home was besieged by the demonstrators.

 

Violent protests took place in Bangladesh earlier on Sunday. The demonstrators called for Sheikh Hasina, the prime minister, to resign. There have reportedly been over 100 recorded deaths throughout the protests. The administration had proclaimed a vacation in response to the violence. They also shut down the internet. Concurrently, the armed forces were dispersed across the nation.

 

But the script for Sheikh Hasina's coup was written months ago; in January, even before her protests started, Sheikh Hasina took office as prime minister for the fifth time. The students abandoned their demonstration after this. Sheikh Hasina, who had ruled for fifteen years, was forced to resign due to the same protest.

 

Triumphing in contentious elections

 

Bangladesh held elections for its parliament in January of this year. The opposition claimed that there was election manipulation. Election boycotts were carried out by opposition parties like Jamaat-e-Islami and the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP). Fifteen political parties had abstained from the event in addition to these two.

 

Merely 40% of the polls was documented. Only 80% of ballots were cast in the 2018 elections, nonetheless. The majority of seats were won by Sheikh Hasina's Awami League. In the legislature, the Awami League secured 224 out of 300 seats.

 

The reservation problem comes next

 

There has long been unrest and bloodshed in Bangladesh. Protests against the Hasina government have taken place multiple times. There was a recent reservation-related commotion in Bangladesh.

 

In Bangladesh, there was indeed a significant reserve for government positions. 30% of government employment were set aside for independence warriors and their offspring, 10% for women impacted by conflict, 40% for various districts, and the other 20% were allocated to deserving candidates.

 

 The students then scattered off. He made a request to the government to change the quota. The quota system, according to the students, is helping the leaders of Hasina's Awami League party. Sheikh Hasina was also charged with favoritism by the students. The students grew violent as the police attempted to disperse them from holding a rally.

 

The violence claimed the lives of six persons

 

On July 16, when six people were killed in clashes between demonstrators and government supporters in the country's capital, Dhaka, violence broke out in Bangladesh. Every college and school has been closed by the government.

 

Sheikh Hasina, the prime minister, was being called out by demonstrators for her resignation. The Bangladesh TV headquarters and a number of government buildings were also set on fire by the demonstrators. To put an end to the demonstration, the government shut the internet.

 

Meanwhile, the ruling regarding the quota system was rendered by the Supreme Court on July 21. The High Court's ruling was reversed by the Supreme Court. For government posts, the Supreme Court has set aside 5% for independence warriors and their offspring. The kids then left in a peaceful manner.

 

Then make a request for pardon.

 

The students resumed their demonstrations last week. Students staging protests asked that Sheikh Hasina issue a public apology, blaming her for the rise in violence. They further requested that students who had been arrested be released, that schools and universities reopen, and that the internet be restored.

 

Students began to demand Sheikh Hasina's resignation on August 4th by starting a non-cooperation movement. At many points during that time, there were violent incidents. As a result of the violence, over 100 individuals died. In an effort to quell the protests, the government pulled out the police and sent in the army. Adding to the protests was the army. The government was requested to remove the army by former chief of staff General Iqbal Karim Bhuiyan. Right now, the army has always supported the people, according to R-Chief Waqar-uz-Zaman.

 

Resigning is Sheikh Hasina

 

A "long march" to Dhaka was demanded by the students on August 6 in an effort to remove Sheikh Hasina. Large attendance at the gathering was encouraged by the demonstrators. The demonstration was attended by a sizable number of women. It was also not stopped by the military.

 

Before a sizable contingent of demonstrators could march to Dhaka, Sheikh Hasina tendered her resignation and fled the nation. The Prime Minister's home was also targeted by the demonstrators. They also set fire to Sheikh Hasina's party office.

 

Sheikh Hasina departed the nation already. She is reportedly traveling to Delhi, from where she can continue on to London. In Bangladesh, the temporary administration has been in place for a few days.
