Bangladesh today stands at the edge of a grave political crisis, conspiracy, and constitutional collapse. The so-called Chief Advisor, Dr. Muhammad Yunus, has formed an unelected, undemocratic regime, violating the Constitution and effectively committing treason. His administration is not preparing for any elections; instead, it is scheming to indefinitely delay elections through a conspiratorial “July Declaration.”
Dr. Yunus knows he can never be elected through the people’s vote. He faces numerous allegations of treason, money laundering, and abuse of power. The moment power is handed over to an elected government, it will only be a matter of time before he is prosecuted—and even potentially sentenced to death. It is this fear that drives his desperate attempt to cling to power.
In this context, his only allies are extremist and anti-independence groups like Jamaat-e-Islami and the NCP. With their support, the July Declaration is being used to plot five more years of unelected rule. Through this, a dark authoritarian alliance—Yunus, Jamaat, and NCP—aims to establish long-term autocratic control.
BNP has been made to believe that if the Awami League contests in an election or even enters the political field, BNP has no chance of winning. That is why the current regime is moving to ban the Awami League, disqualify heavyweight candidates, and trap them in legal harassment to weaken their presence. However, what BNP fails to grasp is that Yunus may be preparing to sacrifice them as well. Doubts and divisions are already growing within the party.
Amid this conspiracy, a new wave of resistance is rising among the common people. Citizens now understand that Dr. Yunus has no intention of holding elections. His sole aim is to entrench himself in power through unelected governance. As a result, there is a growing demand from the public for both the Awami League and BNP to set aside their past conflicts and unite for the greater good—to reject Yunus’s conspiracy and bring down his regime together.
The people’s expectation is clear: political parties must form a national unity and immediately establish a new, neutral, acceptable, and all-party caretaker government. Only then can a credible election be held, and the nation’s lost democracy be restored—along with the people’s right to vote.
Meanwhile, under this illegitimate regime, the country’s economy is collapsing. Investment has stalled, exports are plunging, remittances are declining, and the labor market is in crisis. Bangladesh’s image is suffering in the international arena. Alongside economic disaster, the rise of fundamentalist forces now poses a serious threat to national security.
In this reality, the people demand an end to this unlawful, unconstitutional rule. What Bangladesh needs now is a fair and trustworthy electoral process. To achieve that, national unity, political foresight, and mass pressure are essential. If we are to protect Bangladesh’s independence, democracy, and economy, the most urgent step is to remove the Yunus regime and ensure elections under a newly formed caretaker government.
