Martial laws are coming up in Bangladesh.
Hasina was one who did the martial laws.
Eh, it’s complicated. The Awami League protected women, workers and minorities (to some extent). Now it’ll be a three way fight between the Western-backed interim government, the army and the BNP (religious fundamentalists). Whoever wins, the people will suffer.
Didn’t they shoot some protester hanging from a building or am I confusing protests
They violently suppressed protests (and quietly suppressed political opponents). I’m not saying they’re good people. I’m saying they’re the least bad option.
Why do you think there were mass protests?
Corruption. The Awami League was the party that led Bangladesh to Independence. Recently, they tried to offer some number of government jobs to veterans of the independence struggle. This was seen as nepotism (since most such veterans would be members of the Awami League, or their friends / relatives). The initial student protests were then taken over by, depending on who you ask, religious fundamentalists, Pakistan or the CIA. The current govt is seen as a US puppet, while the BNP are seen as pro-Pakistan.
Are you from 🇧🇩 ?
No, India.
Where in lndia ?
Are you from 🇧🇩 ?
Do you think somebody has to live in a country to have basic news knowledge of what happened there?
The clips of the Hasina cops dumping people off containers and throwing them from roofs were pretty memorable.
Only the people living within the territory are aware about the ground reality.
I live just across the border… I wouldn’t take it to be true what is being shown on the tv screens… After all, they need to bring in profits against the investments that they have made…
So trust the Indian government which Hasina worked for instead. That narrative must be reliable. The public uprising and mass demonstrations can’t be trusted because Modi said so
Are you from Bangladesh ?? Only then your resentment holds any value !!
