In a dramatic escalation of unrest in Bangladesh, thousands of protesters defied a curfew and stormed Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s official residence in Dhaka following reports of her resignation and departure from the country.
The surge of violence and public anger marks one of the most severe crises in Bangladesh’s recent history.
Storming the Palace, Jubilant crowds, who had been gathering in defiance of the curfew, broke through the gates of Sheikh Hasina’s residence early Monday morning.
The scenes of protesters waving flags and celebrating in the streets starkly contrasted with the government’s attempts to control the situation.
Despite barricades and barbed wire set up by soldiers and police, vast numbers of demonstrators flooded the streets, tearing down barriers and overwhelming security measures.The protesters' ire was further demonstrated by the vandalism of a statue of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the father of Sheikh Hasina and former President of Bangladesh.
This act of desecration added to the day's chaos, reflecting the deep-seated anger towards the government.
Sajeeb Wazed Joy, son of Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, made an appeal via Facebook, urging security forces to prevent any attempt to oust the elected government amid escalating mass protests. In his post, Joy, who serves as an information and communications technology advisor, emphasised the importance of maintaining order and protecting the nation's constitutional framework.

Former Indian Foreign Secretary and ex-Ambassador to Bangladesh, Harsh Vardhan Shringla, has analysed the ongoing crisis in Bangladesh, attributing it to a mix of economic hardship, political opportunism, and possible foreign interference. Shringla emphasised that while the protests ostensibly stem from issues like job quotas, deeper economic problems—including the impact of COVID-19 and the Ukraine conflict—have exacerbated the situation. He suggested that political groups like the BNP and Jamaat-e-Islami, as well as foreign actors, may be fueling the unrest to their advantage, contributing to the volatility in Bangladesh.
