The Controversial Reign of Bangladesh’s Prime Minister
Dhaka – Sheikh Hasina, once hailed as a savior for Bangladesh, has come under fire for her handling of protests and political dissent during her time in power. After leading the country out of military rule, she has faced criticism for the mass arrests of political opponents and human rights violations by her security forces.
What started as student-led protests against civil service job quotas has escalated into widespread unrest calling for Hasina’s resignation. The demonstrations, initially peaceful, turned violent when police and pro-government groups began attacking protesters, drawing international condemnation.
Hasina’s 15-year tenure has been marred by escalating tensions with opposition parties and civil society groups, raising concerns about the state of democracy and freedom of speech in Bangladesh. As the protests show no sign of abating, the future of Hasina’s leadership remains uncertain.
