In a significant update, President of Bangladesh Mohammed Shahabuddin on Tuesday, August 6, dissolved parliament amid escalating violence and political unrest in the country. The dissolution follows Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's resignation and departure from Bangladesh on Monday, August 5, prompted by violent protests calling for her removal. Shiplu Zaman, press secretary to the president, confirmed the dissolution in a statement. The decision came shortly after student leaders set a deadline for parliamentary dissolution and threatened a "strict programme" if their demands were not met. The situation remains tense as the nation grapples with increasing unrest.
