Activists in Bangladesh have seiged the presidential palace, Banga Bhaban, demanding the departure of President Mohammed Shahabuddin. The Anti-discrimination Student Movement, which led the campaign to remove Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, held a protest at the core Shaheed Minar in Dhaka before on Tuesday, where they announced their 5-point requirements, including the President’s departure.
The troops set up barriers in front of the protesters as they marched toward Banga Bhaban at night. The activists gathered outside the house, chanting mantras calling for the President’s departure. ” The President is a corporatist of Hasina’s totalitarian government. He may withdraw immediately”, a rebel said.
Mohammed Shahabuddin, also known as Chuppu, is the 16th President of Bangladesh. He was elected unchallenged in the 2023 presidential poll, nominated by the Awami League. The Anti-Discrimination Student Movement has demanded that the 1972 Constitution be repealed and a new one created to reflect the events of 2024.
The kids have likewise demanded the banning of the Awami League’s scholar company, Bangladesh Chatra League, and the departure of President Mohammed Shahabuddin. They have demanded that the elections held in 2014, 2018, and 2024 under Sheikh Hasina been declared unlawful and that the election winners of the members of Parliament who won those elections be disqualified.
Also, they have called for the news of a Statement of the Republic in line with the nature of the July-August rebellion.
The demonstrations, which began in July with kids demanding an end to the limit program for state work, evolved into anti-government presentations. As the demonstrations intensified, Sheikh Hasina, 76, resigned as Bangladesh’s Prime Minister on August 5 and fled to India. An interval government led by Nobel Laureate Muhammad Yunus was established, and on August 8, Yunus was sworn in as the mind of Bangladesh’s interim government.
