In recent days, all eyes have been on the current political situation in Bangladesh. Former Bangladesh PM Sheikh Hasina resigned on August 5, 2024 after student protests against quotas ultimately turned into a movement which sought her removal. The four-time PM resigned and fled the country (while her plane was permitted to enter Indian airspace on that day itself, UK rejected her demand for asylum while the US revoked Hasina’s visa). Sheikh Hasina is likely to remain in India for some time, her son has said that she will return to Bangladesh ahead of the announcement of elections.
