She cited a recent incident in Chittagong where a teacher was allegedly insulted and physically assaulted by Shibir members.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Extending this concern nationwide, she alleged that over 10,000 teachers across Bangladesh, including at Dhaka University, have faced persecution, forced resignations, and other forms of intimidation. &#8220;This is no way to run an education system,&#8221; she stated, questioning the future of the country&#8217;s youth whose right to education has been stripped away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The daughter of Bangabandhu painted a grim picture of broader societal breakdown.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/?p=5959\">Pro-regime Daily Star questions Yunus\u2019 last-minute deals sans accountability<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/?p=6027\">Pro-regime Prothom Alo slams Yunus\u2019 last-minute push for education act<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She pointed to ongoing killings of Awami League leaders and activists inside and outside prisons, the erosion of women&#8217;s empowerment due to the patronisation of extremists, severe shortages of electricity and gas leading to public distress, unavailability of fertilisers for farmers, skyrocketing commodity prices beyond ordinary people&#8217;s reach, and a complete absence of the rule of law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Anyone can enter homes, assault, loot, or steal with impunity,&#8221; Sheikh Hasina lamented, describing Bangladesh as having been turned into a &#8220;jihadist state&#8221; where lawlessness prevails.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She accused Yunus of arriving in power with &#8220;America&#8217;s blessings&#8221; only to &#8220;sell out&#8221; the country while delivering nothing to the people. She said that the US has now suspended visas for Bangladeshis, ironically under a leader she mocked as America&#8217;s &#8220;apple of the eye.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She further alleged rampant corruption, including commission-taking and extortion, by Yunus and his cohorts even before the elections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Several leftist parties, workers\u2019 rights groups, senior journalists and activists are also condemning the Yunus regime for the last-minute deals with the US, Turkey, Pakistan and China involving thousands of crores, saying that this interim administration was supposed to conduct day-to-day tasks ahead of its departure through the elections. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/?p=6030\">Yunus In Epstein Files: Associations, networks, and unanswered questions<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/?p=5984\">Yunus, his Clinton friends appear in Epstein documents, raising eyebrows<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Netizens are also slandering Yunus after his name appeared in the Epstein files alongside his friends like Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, and Alex Soros.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Yunus Is Rehabilitating Razakars<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sheikh Hasina lamented efforts to erase records of freedom fighters&#8217; heroic deeds from the 1971 Liberation War, suggesting that those who did not participate\u2014or worse, collaborated with Pakistani forces\u2014are now rewriting history to suit their narrative. &#8220;The true history cannot be erased from social media or anywhere else,&#8221; she asserted, insisting that such attempts would ultimately fail but are pushing the nation toward destruction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Activists, including exiled journalist Probir Kumar Sarker, have asserted that Yunus is rehabilitating jihadist groups like Hizb ut-Tahrir, JMB, Jama\u2019atul Ansar, ARSA and LeT and pardoning the convicted razakars linked to Jamaat because of his family orientation. Recent reports show that Jama\u2019atul Ansar is threatening jihad against India, echoing the warnings by the Yunus gang, and ARSA is getting the army&#8217;s backing to fight against the Arakan Army in Myanmar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, while Yunus has failed to ensure the repatriation of the Rohingya refugees, his administration is considering issuing over 69,000 passports to the illegal Rohingya refugees staying in Saudi Arabia. This move will eventually consider these Rohingya Bangladeshi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/?p=5780\">ICT-BD: After ATM Azhar, now death-row convict Bachchu Razakar walks free<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/?p=2591\">Helmet League Exposed: How Shibir sabotaged Chhatra League<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Yunus\u2019 father, usurer goldsmith Dula Mia Saudagor, was a leader of the Pakistan Muslim League, a Hindu hater, and a diehard fan of Muhammad Ali Jinnah. Dula Mia and his sons collaborated with the Pakistani army in 1971, when Yunus was staying in the US. Upon return, despite being a university professor and working for women\u2019s empowerment through microcredit, Yunus has always worked with Jamaat and other radical Islamists for political gains by propagating against the Awami League and India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Looting In Ganabhaban<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In her speech, Sheikh Hasina alleged that Yunus himself had overseen the looting of her belongings at Ganabhaban (the Prime Minister&#8217;s residence). She accused him of taking away documents, jewellery, gold, and family heirlooms\u2014including items from her grandmother, grandmother-in-law, and mother\u2014by breaking into bank lockers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/?p=5920\">Interview With AP: Sheikh Hasina denounces election as fundamentally flawed<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/?p=5956\">Sheikh Hasina\u2019s meeting with UK Awami League leaders in Delhi creates hype<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/?p=5997\">Sajeeb Wazed Joy warns of Islamist takeover, urges international intervention<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Looting and making money through plunder is his character, and he has proven it,&#8221; she declared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to reports and confessions, the members of Jamaat-Shibir, other Islamist parties and militants thronged the Ganabhaban on August 5, 2024, with a view to assassinating the then prime minister. Since the army relocated her from the place, the anarchists looted and vandalised the premises. Yunus\u2019 mob leaders, including Hasnat Abdullah, were also present during the mayhem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The jihadist- and army-backed interim administration has turned the Ganabhaban into a museum to propagate its narratives of the July riots. However, as days are passing by, people are now aware that it was not a student-people\u2019s uprising but a planned conspiracy for regime change with the help of foreign and local forces supporting the anti-liberation quarters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From her exile in India, Awami League President and five-time Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina has launched a scathing attack on the interim government led by Dr. Muhammad Yunus, accusing it&hellip; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":6050,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[43,98,1207,101,42],"tags":[77,51,76,50,71,54,495,65,56,1318,63,64],"class_list":["post-6049","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-crime","category-diplomacy","category-emergency","category-interview","category-politics","tag-awami-league","tag-election","tag-extremism","tag-interim-government","tag-islami-chhatra-shibir","tag-jamaat-e-islami","tag-jihad","tag-mobocracy","tag-muhammad-yunus","tag-referendum","tag-sheikh-hasina","tag-yunus-gang"],"brizy_media":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6049","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6049"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6049\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6052,"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6049\/revisions\/6052"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/6050"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6049"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6049"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dailyrepublicbd.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6049"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
