After rules director Asif Nazrul accused him of lying about never having “documentary information” of ex-PM Sheikh Hasina resigning before her scheduled departure on August 5th, Bangladesh President Mohammed Shahabuddin found himself in the sights of the interim government.
Shahabuddin’s remark that he had “only heard” about Hasina’s resignation supported her son Sajeeb Wazed Joy’s statement to Reuters from Washington that his mother “never officially resigned” as she “did n’t have the time” to do so once anti-government protesters stormed her Dhaka residence.
One evening, the cabinet minister arrived to obtain the version of the resignation notice when things started to get under control. I informed him that I was looking for it, the leader was quoted as saying in a document in the publication Janatar Chokh.
The prime ministerial office is only vacated by the incumbent by writing to the president, according to Section 57( a ) of the Bangladesh Constitution.
Rules director Nazrul criticized the president for making what he claimed was a” self-contradictory” note and “akin to a infraction of his oath” as a result of the rise of conspiracy theories about the circumstances surrounding Hasina’s exit.
He referred to Shahabuddin’s address to the nation on August 5, in which he said the ex-PM had handed him her departure. Days later, Hasina left the country.
A political insider predicted that he would n’t be alarmed if Shahabuddin was elected president by the interim administration. The administration’s response suggests that Shahabuddin’s appointment will be discussed with the government of advisers during a meeting. Nazrul gave the press hints at this. According to him,” We know that the law provides that steps can be taken in that place if the leader lacks the physical or mental capacity to hold business or commits major misconduct.” ” If one contradicts their own comments made officially, that could be considered wrongdoing. Therefore, concerns may come regarding their intellectual capacity to serve as president. The president has allowed for for scrutiny to occur.
Hafizuddin Ahmed, a BNP functionary, claimed that Hasina’s withdrawal discussions had given the ongoing political play a whole new dimension. ” Disturbing and concerning news is being circulated”, he said. Hasnat Abdullah, one of the organizers of the anti-discrimination student activity, accused Awami League of quietly plotting to restore social authority.
