Ouster of Hasina was an international plot by US to curve out a new Christian nation from BD and Myanmar to keep an eye on China. US immediately declared that they are ready to work with new government. BD shall be a battleground for China and US. Naturally, India's intrest shall be affected so India will play her own card. BD shall be the battleground for 3 Powerful nations. I wish BD best of luck.

Ouster of Sheikh Hasina was the direct outcome of fierce protest by people of all walks of life against the killing of almost 1000 students in broad daylight. Sheikh Hasina's misrule for 16 years was the root cause of her downfall.

Police on Monday said that they detained an Indian citizen for his alleged involvement in vandalising a temple in Bhanga Upazila of Faridpur.

The detainee is Sanjib Biswas, 45, son of Nishi Kanto Biswas of Nadia in Indian state of West Bengal, according to a press statement issued by the superintendent of police in Faridpur.

Miscreants vandalised a temple in the upazila on Saturday night, and police visited the scene on Sunday after receiving the information.

During the investigation, one person was found sleeping on an abandoned cot in front of the Kali temple, while another person was found lying on the ground next to the cot.

Of them, one was known by the locals, while another one was found unknown, said the press statement.

Due to suspicious behaviour, the police detained the unknown person to ascertain his identity, and, at one point of the interrogation, he confessed that he was an Indian citizen, it said.​

The government has granted the Bangladesh Army the authority of special executive magistrate across the country.

Under the provisions of Section 12(1) of the Criminal Procedure Code of 1898, commissioned officers of the army have been given executive magistrate powers for a period of 60 days.

This decision was announced in a notification from the Ministry of Public Administration on Tuesday.

According to the gazette notification issued by the ministry, eligible army officers will serve as executive magistrates under the supervision of district magistrates nationwide.

These army magistrates will oversee activities related to offences under Sections 65, 83, 84, 86, 95(2), 100, 105, 107, 109, 110, 126, 127, 128, 130, 133, and 142 of the Code of Criminal Procedure 1898.

In response to large-scale clashes during the quota reform protests, the Sheikh Hasina government deployed the army and imposed a nationwide curfew on July 19.

The government was overthrown in a student-led mass uprising on August 5, and an interim administration led by Dr Muhammad Yunus assumed control on August 8.

There you go.

This is how the BJP plays the "Hindu Victim Card".

I am amazed how they deliberately scheme to malign a neighbor nation and meddle in the their political and economic affairs.

The interim government's decision to grant magistracy powers to commissioned army officers for 60 days is an extraordinary measure quite in keeping with these extraordinary times in the nation's life. As per the decision, effective immediately, army officers will act as executive magistrates across the country and be able to exercise the powers that come with this position. With police still largely absent on the streets and lingering concerns about various subversive and criminal activities, the army's involvement in day-to-day law enforcement may seem like a necessary step to restore order. However, it also brings with it critical responsibilities and potential risks that must be managed carefully.

The immediate backdrop to the decision is no secret. The wave of unrest that engulfed the whole country, including the police, following the mass uprising has mostly subsided by now, but concerns remain. We have earlier talked about how low morale within the police force and their diminished capacity are affecting police operations. The decision to grant magistracy powers to army officers aims to fill that gap. These powers, conferred under Section 12(1) of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1898, will allow army officers to take steps in light of 16 sections of the CrPC, including arresting or ordering arrests of suspected offenders, conducting searches, dispersing unlawful assemblies, and so on. They can also use lethal force in extreme situations.

It is the wide scope of the powers and their potential misuse that have raised some concerns, however. True, granting the army this level of authority is not without precedent. Earlier, magistracy powers were granted during the Operation Clean Heart in 2002 and indirectly during the 2007-08 emergency rule. However, it is crucial to remember that such powers come with a heavy responsibility. We, therefore, urge utmost caution and vigilance in their execution. Going forward, the image and integrity of the armed forces, as well as citizens' trust in them, will largely hinge on the proper and judicious use of their new-found authority. Any misuse could erode public confidence and lead to unnecessary confrontations with civilians.

It is equally important to remember that this is, and must remain, a temporary measure. The deployment of the army with special powers must not be seen as a replacement for the police or civilian authorities, but as a stopgap measure to address an extraordinary situation. The longer the army is tasked with fulfilling these duties, the greater the risk of blurring the lines between military and civilian functions. So, it is vital that the police force be fully operationalised as quickly as possible so that we can return to normalcy.​

When you have a big population of radical elements and moles of foreign power, the best thing which a politician in power can do is handle them with heavy hands in the best interest of nation. If this government remains in power for a longer period of time, you will realize that and perhaps appreciate what I say.

It was a student uprising. People who protested against Sheikh Hasina's misrule were school/college/university students. I fail to understand the reason for you to dub students radical elements and moles. And also please do something about the Hindu radical elements (BJP/RSS) in India who are running the country and creating problems for Muslims.
