Bangladesh's New Regime Faces Economic Turmoil and Political Backlash

Bangladesh is experiencing significant political and economic upheaval following the rise of the Yunus-led interim government, which came to power after ousting Sheikh Hasina.

Despite promises of reform and stability, the administration is accused of using cronyism and authoritarian tactics, undermining genuine change. The economy is struggling with rising prices of essential goods and a growing black market, casting doubt on official claims of GDP growth. Meanwhile, controversial plans to repatriate large numbers of Rohingya refugees have sparked concerns about human rights and the government's true intentions.

Public sentiment is increasingly skeptical, with many feeling betrayed by the lack of real progress and transparency.
