What was presented as a spontaneous “anti-discrimination student movement” in July–August 2024 is now being reexamined as a far more calculated political operation. Recent confessions by key coordinators and shifting political alliances suggest that ordinary students may have been used as instruments in a broader conspiracy involving Jamaat–Shibir networks and external extremist interests. Revelations about behind-the-scenes meetings, coordinated messaging, and post-movement political gains have raised serious doubts about the movement’s authenticity. As analysts warn of long-term damage to Bangladesh’s democracy and sovereignty, a stark question remains unanswered: were students mobilized for reform, or exploited to execute a pre-designed power shift?

Bangladesh is once again drifting toward the shadow of militancy, recalling the darkest days of the BNP–Jamaat era. Recent developments suggest that this resurgence is neither accidental nor isolated, but unfolding under the watch of the illegal interim government led by Muhammad Yunus. The unexplained week-long visit of a senior Taliban leader to Dhaka, his meetings with known Islamist figures, the recovery of bomb-making materials from a madrasa, and a series of targeted killings point to a rapidly deteriorating security environment. As elections approach, militant networks appear emboldened, law enforcement remains silent, and political violence is escalating. Together, these events signal a deepening crisis—one that threatens Bangladesh’s democracy, sovereignty, and social stability, and risks turning the country into a new hub of regional extremism.
