The Bangladeshi Parliament has been dissolved following a dramatic series of events that unfolded recently.

The dissolution came in the wake of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s resignation and subsequent flight from the country amid intense and violent protests calling for her removal.

On Tuesday, the president’s office released a statement announcing the dissolution of Parliament.

This decision followed a high-pressure situation, as student leaders, who had been at the forefront of the protests, issued an ultimatum demanding the dissolution of Parliament.

They warned of more severe measures if their demands were not met within the stipulated timeframe.

Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina resigned on Monday, a direct response to weeks of escalating violence from student protesters that resulted in over 300 casualties.

Following her resignation, a wave of attacks and looting targeted offices of the Awami League, Hasina’s political party, as well as the homes of its leaders throughout Dhaka and other regions.

In a related development, Army Chief General Waker-Uz-Zaman addressed the nation on Monday, after conferring with various political party leaders, with the notable exception of those from the Awami League.

General Waker-Uz-Zaman urged the student protesters to exercise patience and avoid further violence.

He assured the public that those responsible for the recent violence and atrocities would be held accountable, and appealed to the citizens to trust the military’s commitment to upholding justice and restoring order.
