Active participation of BNP leaders, activists accelerated July Uprising | Special Stories

Summary:
## Summary

This news article from Bangladesh Sangbad Sangstha (BSS), dated August 4, 2026, reports on the role of the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) and its affiliated organizations in the July Uprising of 2024, which led to the fall of the Awami League government under Sheikh Hasina on August 5, 2024. BNP leaders and activists claim their active participation was a key factor in accelerating the uprising, which resulted in over 1,500 deaths nationwide, with BNP submitting a list of 848 martyrs from their party to the International Crimes Tribunal.

The article features statements from multiple BNP-affiliated leaders, including figures from the Jatiyatabadi Juba Dal (JJD) and Bangladesh Jatiyatabadi Chhatra Dal (JCD), detailing specific casualty figures — such as 78 JJD members and 144 Chhatra Dal members killed. While emphasizing BNP's significant sacrifices, the party's Political Adviser Ruhul Kabir Rizvi also acknowledges that the uprising was a collective effort involving students, the public, and multiple political parties, rather than the achievement of any single group.


July uprising a major milestone in Bangladesh's democratic journey: DU VC  | Others

Summary:
## Summary

This news article from August 3, 2026, reports on a seminar held at Dhaka University titled **"July Uprising, Bangladeshi Nationalism, and Democracy,"** organized by the Faculty of Social Sciences. The central focus is a speech by Dhaka University Vice-Chancellor Professor Dr. A B M Obaidul Islam, who described the **July mass uprising** (referencing events culminating on August 5, 2024) as a landmark moment in Bangladesh's democratic history and a symbol of public resistance against autocracy and repression.

The VC's key arguments were that **no authoritarian regime can sustain power** by suppressing free speech and ignoring public will, that the uprising evolved from a quota reform protest into a broader movement for human rights and democracy, and that student participation demonstrated youth awareness of democratic values. He drew historical parallels between the July uprising and the falls of **British colonial rule and Pakistani oppression**, framing all as inevitable consequences of authoritarian governance.

July atrocities: Charges yet to be framed in most cases against cops

Summary:
## Summary

This article from *The Business Standard* (Bangladesh) reports on the slow progress of legal proceedings against police personnel accused of committing atrocities during Bangladesh's July 2024 mass uprising. One year after the uprising, approximately 70-80 police officers have been arrested nationwide, but charge sheets have not been filed in most cases, meaning formal trials have not yet begun for the majority of accused officers.

Key topics covered include the number of cases and arrests (761 cases filed nationally, 1,168 police named as accused), the identities of high-profile arrestees such as former Inspector Generals of Police, the role of the International Crimes Tribunal (where 27 cases involving 206 accused officers are being processed), and statements from officials defending the slow pace as necessary for thorough investigation. Human rights activists quoted in the article warn that every killing must be prosecuted and that no police personnel should be exempt from accountability.

Hasina shifts stance, now says US did not engineer her removal

Summary:
## Summary

This news article from *The Business Standard* reports that former Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has reversed her earlier position, now stating she does not believe the United States or other Western powers were responsible for her removal from office in August 2024. She made these remarks in interviews with NDTV and CNN-News18, saying she had seen "no decisive evidence" of external involvement and described Bangladesh-US relations as "good and stable."

The article highlights the contrast with her initial stance, in which she reportedly blamed the US and suggested the situation might have differed had she ceded control of St. Martin's Island to Washington. It also notes that former officials close to her government, such as ex-home minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal, continued to allege CIA involvement in her ouster, making Hasina's shift in tone particularly notable.

ICT cases over July atrocities: Two-thirds of 206 accused absconding

Summary:
## Summary

This news article from *The Daily Star* (dated August 5, 2026) reports on the status of 27 cases filed with Bangladesh's International Crimes Tribunal (ICT) related to crimes against humanity committed during the July 2025 mass uprising and enforced disappearances under the 15-year Awami League government. Of 206 accused, only 73 have been arrested, with more than two-thirds — including ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and numerous former ministers and police officials — remaining at large, with some having fled the country before arrest warrants could be executed.

The article covers three main topics: the widespread abscondence of accused individuals (partly attributed to leaked warrant information), the frustration of victims' families who feel justice is being obstructed, and the current state of ICT proceedings — including that charges have been framed in four cases, with trials beginning and Interpol Red Notices requested for 12 high-profile fugitives including Hasina. Since August 5, 2025, a total of 429 complaints have been lodged with the ICT's investigation agency, covering killings that a UN report estimated exceeded 1,400 deaths.


Can Bangladesh break free from its extractive past?

Summary:
## Summary

This opinion article by Dr. Kazi Maruful Islam, published in *The Daily Star* on August 5, 2026, examines Bangladesh's political and institutional struggles in the two years following the July-August 2024 mass uprising, using Daron Acemoglu and James Robinson's framework from *Why Nations Fail* to argue that the country's extractive institutions are actively resisting democratic reform.

The article covers several interconnected challenges: entrenched political and economic elites blocking reform commission proposals, internal fragmentation between political forces like the BNP and the new National Citizen Party, economic instability with inflation at 9.17%, disruptions in education and the bureaucracy, and the spread of misinformation on social media. The author also notes that the Bangladesh Armed Forces remain the only institution maintaining relative stability.

The piece concludes with an urgent warning that Bangladesh's elites must be pressured into genuine consensus on reform agendas before elections are held, or the country risks repeating its cycle of extractive governance and institutional failure.


Summary:
## Summary

This is an opinion piece published in *The Daily Star* (Bangladesh) on August 5, 2026, written by Maisha Islam Monamee, a student at the Institute of Business Administration, University of Dhaka. The article reflects on the two-year anniversary of the July 2024 uprising in Bangladesh, during which protesters — many of them students — were killed by the state, ultimately leading to the fall of the Sheikh Hasina government.

The author argues that the genuine, grassroots grief and unity of July 2024 has since been **hijacked and politicized** by political parties who now invoke the uprising to advance their own agendas, particularly around elections. She emphasizes that the movement was not ideological but a desperate cry for basic human rights, and that the victims are now being reduced to slogans and political currency rather than remembered as human beings. The piece closes with a call to remember July honestly — not as a revolution or a brand, but as a moment of shared suffering that has since been betrayed.


Summary:
## Summary

This August 5, 2026 article from *The Daily Star* (Bangladesh) reports that the Investigation Agency of the International Crimes Tribunal (ICT) has submitted a probe report identifying deposed Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina as the "mastermind and superior commander" behind crimes against humanity committed during the July uprising, with former Home Minister Asaduzzaman Khan Kamal and former IGP Chowdhury Abdullah Al-Mamun named as co-accused.

The report brings five charges against Hasina, including incitement (after she publicly called student protesters "children of Razakars") and directly ordering state forces to use deadly weapons, helicopters, drones, and armored vehicles against protesters — supported by recorded phone conversations. According to the report, more than **1,500 people were killed** and over **25,000 wounded**, with additional allegations including systematic violence against women and children, burning of bodies, and blocking medical treatment for injured protesters.

ICT Chief Prosecutor Tajul Islam stated that formal charges could be filed within two to three weeks, pending review of evidence, and noted the crimes are classified as **crimes against humanity** rather than genocide. Hasina is currently in India following the fall of her government, and this case is one of at least three she faces before the ICT.


Why non-discrimination demands secularism

Summary:
## Summary

This opinion article by economist Dr. S R Osmani, published in *The Daily Star* on August 5, 2026, argues against the Bangladesh Constitution Reform Commission's proposal to remove "secularism" as a fundamental constitutional principle. Osmani defines secularism at the societal level as a governance principle of **state neutrality toward all religious views**, distinguishing it from personal irreligiosity, and frames it as an "overlapping consensus" among citizens with differing beliefs.

The article systematically counters three arguments for discarding secularism — that it lacks value (the theocratic position), that it is irrelevant to modern Bangladesh, and that proposed new principles like "pluralism" make it redundant — concluding that none of these arguments hold up. Osmani specifically argues that pluralism alone cannot resolve conflicts between incompatible value systems like theocracy and liberal democracy, and that only secularism can operationalize non-discrimination in a religiously diverse society.

His central conclusion is that secularism must be **retained in the constitution** as the foundation of an overlapping liberal democratic consensus, while still allowing legal democratic space for competing ideologies — calling the Commission's proposal to remove it "a grave mistake."


Summary:
## Summary

This opinion article by Dr. Kazi ASM Nurul Huda, published in *The Daily Star* on August 5, 2026, examines whether meaningful political change in Bangladesh can be achieved without violent upheaval, written in the context of the student-led uprising of July-August 2024 that triggered an abrupt regime change. The author draws on historical comparisons — contrasting the chaotic French Revolution and its descent into the Reign of Terror with the more institutionally focused American and Glorious Revolutions — to argue that radical, disruptive change tends to produce instability rather than lasting reform, citing post-Arab Spring Libya and Egypt as modern cautionary examples.

The article's central argument is that Bangladesh, which already has fragile but existing democratic structures, should pursue gradual, institution-strengthening reform rather than revolutionary upheaval. The author outlines a three-part framework for achieving this: grounding reform goals in practical feasibility, developing a clear social theory that resonates with citizens' real aspirations, and building a unifying social philosophy to guide long-term democratic progress.


Reform quota system in academic admissions

Summary:
## Summary

This opinion article from *The Daily Star* (Bangladesh), authored by two research associates at the Bangladesh Institute of Governance and Management, argues that Bangladesh's university admission quota system is deeply flawed and in urgent need of reform. The authors highlight recent student protests at Jahangirnagar University and Rajshahi University that successfully pressured administrators to abolish specific quotas, such as heir quotas and vice-chancellor quotas, as evidence of growing public frustration. A particularly striking example cited is the 2024-25 MBBS admissions, where 70% of freedom fighter quota recipients were admitted without meeting standard merit criteria.

The article's central proposal is replacing the current rigid, fixed-percentage quota system with a **flexible, data-driven model** that uses real-time demographic data, machine learning, and predictive analytics to dynamically allocate reserved seats based on actual eligible applicants. The authors also call for stronger eligibility verification through centralized registries and greater transparency through annual public reporting.


Elections belong to the people, not the politicians

Summary:
## Summary

This opinion article, published in *The Daily Star* on August 5, 2026, argues that Bangladesh's upcoming elections must genuinely reflect the will of its citizens rather than serve the interests of political elites. Written by political commentator Azman Rahman, it frames the 2024 uprising against Sheikh Hasina's government as part of a historical pattern — alongside 1971 and 1990 — in which Bangladeshis have repeatedly risen against suppressed democratic rights.

The article's main topics include: the urgency of holding free and fair elections (with the chief adviser targeting February), concerns about political parties pushing for delays or threatening boycotts, the economic and social costs of ongoing instability (including a poverty rate approaching 28%), and the structural reforms needed for credible elections, such as an independent Election Commission and politically neutral security forces. The author warns that further electoral manipulation risks repeating the cycle of public unrest, and emphasizes that with over half the population under 35, restoring faith in democratic participation is critical to Bangladesh's future stability and international credibility.


In the shadow of July: The parents who waited, worried, and walked together

Summary:
## Summary

This article from *The Daily Star* (published August 5, 2026) reflects on the July–August 2024 student protest movement in Bangladesh through the perspectives of parents whose children participated. It profiles both parents who feared for their children's safety and those who ultimately joined the protests themselves, while also memorializing specific students killed during the unrest, including 20-year-old Mahamudur Rahman Saikat (shot July 19, 2024), student Golam Nafiz (killed August 4, 2024), and 17-year-old Nafisa Hossain Marwa (killed August 5, 2024).

The main topics covered include the emotional experiences of parents — ranging from fear, pride, and helplessness to active solidarity — as well as the additional vulnerability faced by families from marginalized communities, the chilling effect of Bangladesh's cyber security laws on free expression, and accounts of parents who physically joined protests to shield young demonstrators. The article also highlights the ongoing grief of parents whose children were killed, preserving their children's dreams and aspirations.

July’s promise cannot belong to the few who inherited its power

Summary:
## Summary

This is an opinion piece published in *The Daily Star* (Bangladesh) on August 5, 2026, written by Nuzia Hasin Rasha, a student activist and freelance writer. The article argues that the democratic promise of Bangladesh's July 2024 uprising — which briefly united diverse groups including workers, women, students, Indigenous peoples, and marginalized communities against authoritarian rule — has been progressively undermined by a narrowing political project that reproduces the same exclusionary hierarchies it originally sought to dismantle.

The main topics covered include the **co-optation of the uprising's revolutionary energy** by emerging political elites focused on consolidating state power rather than transforming society; the **marginalization of women** despite their central role in the uprising, evidenced by institutional inaction on harassment and misogynistic rhetoric at events like the May 2025 Hefazat rally; and a pattern of **attacks on minorities and pluralistic institutions** — including Indigenous students, religious minorities, and cultural organizations — reflecting what the author characterizes as a broader **right-wing restructuring** of post-July politics. The author concludes that genuine revolution requires ensuring those who made the uprising possible are not excluded from shaping Bangladesh's political future.


'There is no reason not to accept OHCHR assistance'

Summary:
## Summary

This is an interview published in *The Daily Star* (Bangladesh) on August 5, 2026, featuring Sara Hossain, a senior Supreme Court advocate and honorary executive director of BLAST, discussing the role of the UN Office of the High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) in Bangladesh.

Hossain argues that Bangladesh's accountability institutions have become severely dysfunctional, making OHCHR assistance both necessary and logical during the country's critical transitional period following the ouster of the Awami League government. She emphasizes that the OHCHR mission should supplement — not replace — existing institutions, helping with capacity-building, transitional justice, police and judicial reform, and documenting human rights violations from the July-August 2024 mass killings.

While acknowledging some legal progress under the interim government — such as repealing the Digital Security Act and establishing reform commissions — Hossain warns that concerning practices persist, particularly arbitrary arrests, bail denials in politically sensitive cases, and a justice system not yet fully independent from political pressure.


We must never forget what led to the July mass uprising

Summary:
## Summary

This opinion article by economics professor M. Niaz Asadullah, published in *The Daily Star* on August 5, 2026 — the second anniversary of the fall of Sheikh Hasina's government — analyzes the root causes of Bangladesh's July 2024 mass uprising. The author argues that Hasina's government collapsed because its development-based political bargain broke down: while economic growth had previously justified reduced political freedoms, rising inflation, banking instability, youth unemployment, and a disputed public-sector job quota system ultimately united educated young people with broader public anger against the regime. The article warns that the newly elected BNP government risks repeating history by already showing signs of replacing Hasina's patronage networks with its own, and concludes that truly honoring the July uprising requires building a genuinely merit-based, accountable state rather than simply swapping one set of political loyalists for another.

**Main topics covered:**
- The political-economic conditions that led to the July 2024 uprising
- The role of the job quota dispute and youth unemployment as catalysts
- State repression and its role in delegitimizing Hasina's government
- Early warning signs that the new BNP government may be repeating past mistakes


Summary:
## Summary

This editorial from *The Daily Star*, published on August 5, 2026, marks the second anniversary of Bangladesh's **July Mass Uprising**, which ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on August 5, 2024. The article reflects on the democratic aspirations that drove the uprising and the subsequent adoption of the **July National Charter**, a reform roadmap aimed at establishing democratic governance, human rights protections, and rule of law.

The piece expresses concern that political unity has fractured since the transition to an elected government, with the ruling **BNP** and the **Jamaat-led alliance (including the NCP)** deadlocked over *how* to implement key constitutional reforms — such as creating an upper house and amending Article 70. The editorial also notes that global economic instability, worsened by the Russia-Ukraine war and a U.S.-Israel conflict against Iran, is compounding Bangladesh's domestic economic challenges.

The article concludes with a call for **sincere dialogue** between the ruling party and opposition to restore the unity of the uprising and complete its unfinished reform agenda before political infighting causes further damage.


Keeping the July uprising’s promise alive needs a vigilant public

Summary:
## Summary

This is an opinion article published in *The Daily Star* (Bangladesh) on August 5, 2026, written by former economics professor Anu Muhammad, marking the two-year anniversary of the July 2024 Mass Uprising that ended Sheikh Hasina's government. The author argues that the democratic and social aspirations that drove the uprising have largely gone unfulfilled, drawing historical parallels to the 1969 and 1990 uprisings that similarly ended authoritarian regimes promising development.

The article identifies five specific failures of the post-uprising period: the rise of mob violence, religious intolerance, and continued state repression; attacks on cultural institutions and minority communities; non-transparent international agreements (including deals with Starlink, LNG suppliers, Japan, and the US) signed without public scrutiny; megaprojects approved without proper expert review or public consent; and the failure of both government and opposition to address systemic inequalities of class, religion, ethnicity, and gender. The author concludes that sustained civic vigilance and public engagement are essential to prevent Bangladesh from reverting to authoritarianism and to keep the uprising's democratic promises alive.

## Summary: "How We Should Build Brand Bangladesh"

This opinion piece by Ashfaq Zaman, published in *The Daily Star* on August 5, 2026, argues that Bangladesh should build its national brand around its authentic strengths rather than generic economic narratives like being an "emerging tiger economy." The author identifies three core pillars for Brand Bangladesh: its rich Bengali language and literary heritage (citing figures like Rabindranath Tagore and Lalon Shah, and noting Bengali is the fourth most spoken language globally), its proven national resilience (demonstrated through historical events from the 1952 Language Movement to the 2024 mass uprising), and its identity as a moderate Muslim nation characterized by social harmony and religious unity. The piece concludes that Bangladesh should actively leverage these distinctive qualities — language, resilience, and moderation — to craft a compelling and credible national identity on the world stage.

The protesters had breached police barricades near the Intercontinental Hotel in Shahbagh around midnight before being persuaded to disperse around 1:45am. Their core demands included **proper medical treatment, rehabilitation, and official state recognition** as injured uprising participants, and they indicated they would continue to depend on government action to fulfill those assurances.


‘The July uprising was about truth and justice’

Summary:
## Summary

This article from *The Daily Star* (published August 5, 2026) marks the two-year anniversary of Bangladesh's July-August 2024 student uprising, which toppled an autocratic regime that had ruled for over 15 years. It features first-hand accounts from three female student protesters — Nasita Binte Nasir, Lamisha Jaman, and Kameliya Sharmin Chura — describing the violence they witnessed and survived, including live gunfire, tear gas, military tanks, and attacks by the Bangladesh Chhatra League (BCL). The women reflect on their motivations, the chaos and brutality of the crackdown, and their disillusionment with post-uprising Bangladesh, where they feel the original goals of truth, justice, and ending discrimination remain largely unfulfilled.


The July lesson: Restore the contract that allows democracy to self-correct

Summary:
## Summary

This is an opinion article published in *The Daily Star* (Bangladesh) on August 5, 2026, marking the two-year anniversary of the student-led mass uprising that ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina. Written by geopolitical analyst Asif Bin Ali, the article argues that Bangladesh's democratic crisis stemmed from both major political parties — BNP and Awami League — repeatedly breaking the post-1990 social contract that required peaceful, electoral transfers of power, with Awami League ultimately abolishing the caretaker government system and using enforced disappearances and extrajudicial killings to entrench authoritarian rule through the 2014, 2018, and 2024 elections.

The article also examines how a changing middle class, youth unemployment, and anti-elite sentiment contributed to the pressure that exploded in the July–August 2024 uprising. The author's central argument is that Bangladesh must establish a new social contract in which all political parties commit unconditionally to free elections and peaceful transfers of power, warning that **when democratic self-correction through voting is blocked, society eventually resorts to violent rupture**.


A non-inclusive July Charter will be a betrayal

Summary:
## Summary

This is an opinion piece published in *The Daily Star* (Bangladesh) on August 5, 2026, written by Dr. Samina Luthfa, a sociology professor at Dhaka University. The article reflects on the second anniversary of the July-August 2024 uprising that overthrew Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, arguing that while the movement successfully removed an autocratic regime, it failed to achieve the deeper structural and institutional changes that protesters had demanded.

The author's central argument focuses on the proposed "July Charter," warning that if this foundational document excludes minorities, women, Indigenous Peoples, non-Bangalee communities, and non-Muslims, it will represent a betrayal of the uprising's core ideals of equal dignity and non-discrimination. She also insists that Bangladesh's Liberation War history of 1971 must not be undermined or falsely equated with other historical events.

Is the government losing its grip on law and order?

Summary:
## Summary

This is an opinion article published in *The Daily Star* (Bangladesh) on August 5, 2026, written by Kallol Mustafa. It critically examines whether Bangladesh's BNP-led elected government has improved law and order and human rights conditions since taking office, arguing that it largely has not.

**Main topics covered include:**
- **Crime and mob violence statistics**: 915 murder cases were recorded in March–May 2026 (the BNP's first three months), up from 767 comparable cases in the same period of 2025; mob violence killed 31–42 people in March–April alone
- **Human rights abuses**: Deaths in police custody, extrajudicial killings, attacks on religious minorities and Baul communities, and a 77% rise in mob violence injuries between May and June
- **Freedom of expression concerns**: At least 51 journalists assaulted in June, arrests under cybersecurity and anti-terrorism laws, and criminal cases filed against reporters covering ministerial corruption
- **Failure to implement structural reforms**: The BNP government has not acted on UN recommendations to reform or dissolve agencies like RAB and DGFI, and has actually repealed an interim-government ordinance strengthening the National Human Rights Commission

The author concludes that without genuine police, judiciary, and institutional reform, public support for the government will erode.

Summary:
## Summary

This August 5, 2026 article from The Daily Star reports on the slow progress of legal cases stemming from Bangladesh's July 2024 uprising, which toppled Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's Awami League government. Two years later, investigations remain incomplete in over 86% of the 1,862 cases filed nationwide, with only 254 cases fully investigated as of June 30, 2026.

The article highlights the key figures and facts: at least 1,862 total cases (799 murder charges, 1,063 other charges) have been filed, while the International Crimes Tribunal (ICT) has delivered six judgments convicting 61 people, including Sheikh Hasina herself, who was sentenced to death for crimes against humanity. Of those convicted, 16 received death sentences, 11 received life imprisonment, and 34 others received prison terms ranging from 3 to 20 years, though 250 accused remain at large.

The piece also touches on the human cost of the slow justice process, featuring grieving mothers of victims killed during the uprising, as well as individuals who claim they were falsely accused, illustrating how the prolonged investigations have created suffering on multiple sides.

Summary:
## Summary

This is a personal opinion piece published in *The Daily Star* (Bangladesh) on August 5, 2026, written by Maisha Islam Monamee to mark the second anniversary of what is referred to as the "July Uprising" of 2024 in Bangladesh. The author reflects on her lived experience as a student during that period, describing the anxiety of monitoring casualty lists, internet blackouts, missing friends, and watching student protesters — people she describes as resembling classmates and neighbors — die in the streets.

The author draws a contrast between her current professional life and who she was during those events, framing July 2024 as a defining "before and after" moment for her generation in Bangladesh.

**Key topics covered include:**

- The lasting nature of collective trauma and involuntary memory triggers
- Generational loss of innocence regarding political violence


Summary:
## Summary

This news article from *The Daily Star* (Bangladesh) reports that the International Crimes Tribunal-2 (ICT-2) has ordered the Bangladesh Army to produce Major (retired) Muzaffar Hossain before the court in connection with a **crimes against humanity case**. Muzaffar had been arrested by Detective Branch police and transferred to army custody over his alleged involvement in the **1981 assassination of former president Ziaur Rahman**, for which he faces a separate military court trial.

The main focus of the ICT case, however, concerns Muzaffar's alleged **16-year covert communication and collaboration with Lt. Gen. (retired) Masud Uddin Chowdhury** — a key figure in Bangladesh's 2007 army-backed caretaker government and an existing accused in the same crimes against humanity case. Investigators traced Muzaffar through **digital forensic analysis**, including encrypted WhatsApp/Viber groups and cell tower data linked to a disguised phone profile ("John Doe") connected to a SIM registered fraudulently. The prosecution intends to formally arrest him under the ICT case, seek remand for interrogation, and potentially conduct a face-to-face interrogation with Masud.

## Summary

This news article from *The Daily Star* (Bangladesh), published August 5, 2026, reports on statements made by International Crimes Tribunal (ICT) Chief Prosecutor Aminul Islam regarding the disposal of bodies of victims killed during Bangladesh's July 2024 uprising.

The chief prosecutor confirmed that approximately **1,400 people were killed** during the uprising (per a UN report), with at least 834 identified so far, and that suspected mass grave sites exist in Jurain, Matuail, Narayanganj, and Munshiganj, with 114 unidentified bodies buried at Rayerbazar. DNA testing is ongoing to identify remaining victims, and authorities have pledged to hold all those responsible accountable, regardless of their position within the state.


Who writes the history of the July Uprising?

Summary:
## Summary

This July 29, 2026 opinion article in *The Daily Star* (Bangladesh), written by student activist Nuzia Hasin Rasha, argues that the political memory of Bangladesh's 2024 July Uprising is being distorted by dominant narratives that erase the contributions of Left and progressive political forces. The author contends that Left organizations — including the Left Democratic Alliance and the Democratic Student Alliance — were active participants from the movement's earliest stages, citing specific documented actions such as press conferences on July 7, 2024, protest marches amid violent repression, and the August 2 "Droho Jatra" rally. The article warns that reducing a broad, pluralistic popular uprising to the achievements of a narrow political elite or select individuals is a historically dishonest pattern repeated throughout Bangladesh's history, and that preserving the movement's collective, plural character is itself a democratic responsibility.

Summary:
## Summary

This news article from *The Daily Star* (Bangladesh) commemorates the events of August 3, 2024, a pivotal day in Bangladesh's mass uprising against Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's government. On that date, tens of thousands of protesters gathered at Dhaka's Central Shaheed Minar, where movement organizer Nahid Islam rejected Hasina's offer for dialogue and declared a single unified demand: the resignation of Hasina and her entire cabinet. The protest had originated in July 2024 as a movement against the government job quota system before escalating into a broader anti-government uprising.

The article covers key events of that day, including the army chief's directive to troops to protect citizens, ongoing violence that killed at least two people and injured 55 others across seven districts, and the Awami League's defiant response — with party secretary Obaidul Quader blaming the unrest on a "third party" seeking to destabilize Bangladesh. The piece is published two years after the events, framed as a retrospective look at a critical turning point in what is referred to as the **July Uprising**.

Divided by ideology, united in misogyny: How women of July became targets across Bangladesh's political spectrum

Summary:
## Summary

This August 2026 investigative analysis from *The Daily Star* (Bangladesh) documents how women who rose to prominence during Bangladesh's July Uprising became targets of coordinated, cross-partisan misogynistic harassment online. Journalists analyzed 139 Facebook posts published between August 2024 and July 2026, finding that rival political groups — including the Awami League, BNP, Jamaat-e-Islami, and far-right accounts — all deployed strikingly similar tactics against 15 named women, including body-shaming, slut-shaming, rape threats, and doxxing, despite holding opposing ideologies. The article also examines Meta's role in enabling this abuse, noting that recent 2025 changes to the platform's content moderation policies weakened protections against gendered slurs, and that reported violations were frequently left unaddressed.

Summary:

Despite his frustration, Fakhrul expressed confidence in **Prime Minister Tarique Rahman** as a leader genuinely committed to reform, calling on citizens to support him. He emphasized that meaningful change requires a shift in mindset across all levels of society — not just in government — for the sacrifices of the July Uprising to produce lasting results.

Summary:
## Summary

This document is a **timeline archive of the July 2024 uprising (জুলাই অভ্যুত্থান) in Bangladesh**, compiled by an organization called "July Archive" (জুলাই আর্কাইভ), based on credible news sources and personal notes.

The main topics covered include:

- **The quota reform movement**: Beginning with a June 5, 2024 High Court ruling that reinstated the freedom fighter (মুক্তিযোদ্ধা) quota for grades 9–13 in government jobs, reversing a 2018 circular that had abolished it
- **Student protests**: Escalating demonstrations at Dhaka University and other universities demanding the abolition of the quota system and merit-based hiring, with students setting a June 30 deadline for the government to respond
- **The "Anti-Discrimination Student Movement" (বৈষম্যবিরোধী ছাত্র আন্দোলন)**: Their four-point demands included reinstating the 2018 merit-based circular, forming a commission to reduce discriminatory quotas, preventing multiple use of quota benefits, and ensuring a corruption-free civil service

The archive notes that reported casualty figures from the uprising are **lower than actual numbers**, and a more comprehensive daily account is forthcoming.


শহীদ রাজমিস্ত্রী তুহিন আহমেদ - জুলাই আর্কাইভ

Summary:
## Summary

This is a memorial article from the "July Archive" (জুলাই আর্কাইভ) about **Tuhin Ahmed**, a 28-year-old bricklayer (রাজমিস্ত্রী) who was killed on **July 20, 2024**, during Bangladesh's student-led quota reform movement. He was shot in the abdomen by a stray bullet while returning home from work on Chittagong Road in Narayanganj, and died despite being rushed between multiple hospitals.

The article focuses on the devastating impact of his death on his family — particularly his wife **Riya Sheikh**, who was stranded at her parents' home due to curfew and could not reach him in time, and their **3-year-old son Ayat**, who still visits his father's grave waiting for him to return. The central emotional theme is captured in Ayat's repeated question: *"Baba, why don't you come back?"*

The piece, written by a student at Chittagong University, emphasizes that Tuhin was an ordinary, apolitical working man whose death highlights the human cost of state violence during the 2024 uprising, leaving behind a grieving family with debt, no income, and unanswered questions about accountability.

Quota protest: DB picks up three organisers from hospital

## Summary

This news article from *The Daily Star* (Bangladesh) reports on the detention of three key organizers of Bangladesh's quota reform protest movement — Nahid Islam, Asif Mahmud, and Abu Baker Majumder — who were taken from Gonoshasthaya Nagar Hospital in Dhaka by plainclothes individuals on the afternoon of August 4, 2026. The Detective Branch (DB) of Dhaka Metropolitan Police claimed the three "sought security" from police, but family members and hospital staff contradicted this, stating they were **forcibly removed** to an undisclosed location, with their mobile phones confiscated.

The article notes this was the **second time** within a week the trio had been detained, with previous pickups occurring around July 19-20, during which Nahid Islam alleged he was physically tortured and left unconscious under a bridge. All three are students of Dhaka University and key coordinators of the **Anti-discrimination Student Movement**, which had been organizing protests against the government's quota system for public sector jobs. A planned press briefing by protest coordinators that evening was ultimately not held, reportedly due to significant pressure on the organizers.
