Violence in Bangladesh is not stopping. There is bloodshed on the streets. On Monday, 135 people were reported killed in the entire country including Dhaka. The situation in the capital Dhaka has gone out of control. Due to these reasons, Sheikh Hasina had to leave her country and student leader Nahid Islam and his associates are said to be behind this.
The reason behind the fall of Sheikh Hasina’s government in Bangladesh is the student wing of Jamaat-e-Islami. In the last 2 years, many cadres of Islamic student camp have been recruited in different universities of Bangladesh. It was from here that the work of instigating university students was started. The students who have been protesting on the streets for the last two months against reservation were from the Islamic Student Organization. Hasina Sheikh has been forced to leave her country because of the three main faces in these organizations. Let’s know who Nahid Islam is.

Nahid Islam, who is often seen in public with a Bangladeshi flag tied on his forehead, is a sociology student at Dhaka University. Nahid speaks sweetly. It is because of his leadership that Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina was forced to leave the country after being in power for 15 consecutive years. 26-year-old Nahid Islam led the protest against reservation in government jobs and started a student movement a few days ago. This campaign was later changed to ‘Remove Hasina’ campaign. In mid-July, the police detained him and some other students of Dhaka University, after which people started recognizing him. This protest of these people became deadly.
Historic day for Bangladesh
Nahid Islam was born in Dhaka in 1998. He is married and has a younger brother Naqib. His father is a teacher and his mother is a housewife. Younger brother Naqib said about his brother Nahid Islam that the country needs to change, he was picked up by the police, tortured till he fainted and then thrown on the road. Despite all this, they are struggling. We believe that they will not give up. We are proud of them. Sabrina Karim, an associate professor of government at Cornell University who specializes in studying political violence, called Monday a historic day for Bangladesh.
Many college students died in the violence
Weeks of violence in Bangladesh have left nearly 300 people dead, many of them college and university students. The violence eased a little when Hasina resigned on Monday. Nahid Islam and other student leaders were scheduled to meet Army Chief General Waqar-uz-Zaman on Tuesday. Zaman had announced Hasina’s resignation and said an interim government would be formed. After this, it was said that the students would not accept any government led or supported by the army and they have proposed to make Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus the chief advisor.
After the resignation, Nahid Islam said that “no government other than the one we have recommended will be accepted.” On Monday, flanked by other student leaders, the bearded and burly Nahid Islam told reporters that “we will not betray the blood shed by the martyrs for our cause. We will build a new democratic Bangladesh with security of life, social justice and a new political landscape.” He maintained that the country of 170 million would never return to that situation and asked fellow students to protect its Hindu minorities and their places of worship.
