Who oust Sheikh Hasina? Muhammad Yunus introduce brains behind bangladesh student protest
In a dramatic turn of events, Sheikh Hasina’s 16-year government in Bangladesh has been ousted amid widespread public protests, forcing her to resign from the position of Prime Minister. At the forefront of this uprising, Mohammad Yunus, the head of Bangladesh’s interim government, recently brought global attention to the student leaders who orchestrated the movement during a speech at the Clinton Global Initiative in New York.
While attending the United Nations General Assembly, Yunus introduced key student activists who played a pivotal role in the protests. He emphasized their unwavering commitment and bravery, stating, “Their resolve shook the entire nation. These students risked their lives and never backed down from the struggle.”

During the event, Yunus acknowledged his special assistant, Mahfuz Alam, as a central figure behind the movement. Despite Alam’s modesty in deflecting praise, Yunus affirmed, “He is indeed the brain behind this entire initiative.”
Yunus described the protests not as a spontaneous outburst of anger, but as a carefully planned and organized movement. He noted that the protests were designed to ensure that no single leader would become isolated or face arrest.
Furthermore, Yunus shed light on the oppression faced by students under the previous government and highlighted their courageous stand against violence. His remarks aimed to paint a broader picture of the struggle for democracy in Bangladesh and the resilience of its youth in the face of adversity.
