The non-cooperation movement,[a] also known as the one-point movement,[b] was a protest against the government of Bangladesh, initiated within the framework of the 2024 Bangladesh quota reform movement. The sole demand of this movement was the resignation of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and her cabinet.[13][14]

Although initially limited to the goal of reforming quotas in government jobs, the movement snowballed into a mass anti-government uprising after the deaths of several protesters. The movement was also fueled by ongoing socio-economic and political issues, including the government's mismanagement of the national economy, rampant corruption by government officials, human rights violations, allegations of undermining the country's sovereignty by Sheikh Hasina, and increasing authoritarianism and democratic backsliding.[15][16][17][18][19]

On 3 August 2024, coordinators of the Anti-discrimination Students Movement announced a one-point demand for the resignation of the Prime Minister and her cabinet and called for "comprehensive non-cooperation".[20][21] The following day, violent clashes broke out, resulting in the deaths of 97 people, including students. The coordinators called for a long march to Dhaka to force Hasina out of power on 5 August. That day, a large crowd of protesters made its way through the capital.[22] At 2:30 p.m. BST, Sheikh Hasina resigned and fled to India, her biggest ally.[23] Widespread celebrations and violence occurred following her removal, while the military and President Mohammed Shahabuddin announced the formation of an interim government led by economist and Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus.[24] Meanwhile, Indian media was seen engaging in a widespread disinformation campaign aimed at destabilizing Bangladesh following Hasina's resignation and departure to India.[25][26][27]

Background

Main article: 2024 Bangladesh quota reform movement

During the quota reform movement in 2024, participants—particularly students—faced resistance, mass arrests, and numerous deaths and injuries at the hands of police and other security forces. Six coordinators of the initial quota reform movement were also detained and were forcefully made to announce the conclusion of the protests by the Detective Branch (DB) of the Dhaka Metropolitan Police (DMP). These events and authoritarianism fuelled people's anger against the government. On the morning of 3 August, one of the movement coordinators, Asif Mahmud, stated in a Facebook post that they would start a "non-cooperation movement" against the government, saying that it would be similar to that of "March '71".[28] In the afternoon, Prime Minister Hasina proposed talks with the protesters, saying that "The doors of Ganabhaban (the Prime Minister's official residence) are open".[29]

The Anti-discrimination Students Movement previously called for day-long protest programmes on 3 August. After day-long protests, students and ordinary people gathered at the central Shaheed Minar area with protest marches from different parts of Dhaka.[30] At around 5:30 p.m., Nahid Islam, one of the coordinators, addressed the assembled crowd at Shaheed Minar and announced that the movement's exclusive demand was the resignation of Hasina and her cabinet. He also called for a comprehensive non-cooperation movement starting from 4 August[31][32][33][34] and announced that they had no plans to negotiate with the government. He added that "we were forcefully offered to sit in talks with the Prime Minister. But we protested against this proposal by going on a hunger strike in DB custody."[35]

History

A protester is seen holding a sign that reads রক্তের দাগ শুকায় নাই, which translates to "The marks of blood have not yet dried". The sign features a demon-like depiction of Sheikh Hasina, a figure reminiscent of a similar portrayal of Yahya Khan from 1971.

On 4 August, thousands of protesters gathered at the Shahbag intersection in the morning, obstructing it as a form of civil disobedience to demand the government's resignation.[36]

At least 97 people died nationwide in confrontations, shootings, and pursuits related to the Non-cooperation movement. Fourteen police officers were killed across the country, with 13 deaths occurring at the Enayetpur police station in Sirajganj. Another officer was killed in Eliotganj, Comilla.[37] Twenty-seven police facilities were attacked and vandalized, and a hundred policemen were injured in these incidents, according to an official statement by the Bangladesh Police.[11]

In Dhaka, unidentified individuals set fire to and damaged various vehicles, including cars, ambulances, motorcycles, and buses, at the Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University during the protests.[38] By 12:00 p.m., users across the country reported internet inaccessibility.[39] The government ordered the closure of Facebook, Messenger, WhatsApp, Instagram, and all other Meta-owned services, directing internet service providers to comply after 1:00 p.m.[40] Later, the Minister of Information and Broadcasting Mohammad A. Arafat confirmed that some social media platforms were temporarily blocked to prevent the spread of rumors amid protests.[41] An indefinite nationwide curfew was imposed starting at 6:00 p.m.[42][43] Additionally, all courts were also ordered to close indefinitely.[44]

The government declared a three-day general holiday starting from 5 August, during which banks will also remain closed.[45] The Anti-Discrimination Students Movement confirmed their intention to march towards Dhaka on 6 August to demand the Prime Minister's resignation.[46] The Bangladesh University Teachers' Network proposed a framework for an interim government, suggesting it be composed of teachers, judges, lawyers, and representatives from civil society, reflecting the views of various civil and political groups for a democratic transition.[47]

Asif Mahmud, a coordinator of the Anti-Discrimination Students Movement, announced that their march to Dhaka had been rescheduled to 5 August, instead of 6 August. He called on protesters and civilians nationwide to march toward the capital and participate in civil disobedience.[48] Several former Bangladesh Army officers, including former chief of staff Iqbal Karim Bhuiyan, held a press briefing urging soldiers to return to camps and refrain from getting involved in the political crisis or being used against civilians.[49][50]

On 5 August, the Anti-discrimination Students Movement rejected the curfew.[51] In response to calls for the march to Dhaka, DMP Commissioner Habibur Rahman warned of zero tolerance, stating that firm legal action would be taken against those who violated the curfew.[52] Reports indicated that Hasina had been taken to a "safe shelter".[53] Up to 135 people were killed during protests that day.[54] Later that day, Sheikh Hasina resigned and fled the country.[55]

Outcome

Resignation of Sheikh Hasina

On 5 August 2024, at around 3:00 p.m. BST (09:00 GMT), Prime Minister Hasina resigned and fled the country on a helicopter with her sister, Sheikh Rehana to India,[2][23][56][3] arriving in Delhi via Agartala. Although she intended to record a speech, she did not have the opportunity to do so.[57] Hasina's son, Sajeeb Wazed, later said that his mother had begun considering resignation as early as 3 August, but was only convinced to do so by close relatives who had been approached by senior military and police officials, according to media reports. These reports also indicated that her decision was further influenced by security assessments during meetings on 4 August, which concluded that her safety could no longer be guaranteed. Senior police officers had also warned her that their forces were running out of ammunition.[58]

Storming of Ganabhaban

People occupying the Ganabhaban

Shortly after Sheikh Hasina's departure, at around 3:00 p.m. BST, protesters breached the gates of the Ganabhaban and entered the Prime Minister's residence looting, vandalizing, and destroying numerous items, including furniture.[59] They rummaged office files[60] and sat on her bed as well as her chair to take selfies.[61] Some protesters ate food and stole live animals,[62][63] while others took Hasina's luxury Dior suitcase and her sarees.[64]

Sheikh Hasina's departure

Reports indicated that Hasina, along with her sister Sheikh Rehana and senior Awami League official Salman F Rahman, fled Ganabhaban aboard a military helicopter before transferring to a C-130 Hercules aircraft of the Bangladesh Air Force. An internet blackout was enforced to hinder the tracking of her movements.[58][65] Initial reports suggested Hasina's flight, carrying the callsign AJAX1431, would land in Agartala, in the Indian state of Tripura. AJAX1431 switched off its transponder at around 17:00 local time over Lucknow, rendering the aircraft untraceable. Shortly, she was reported to have landed at the Hindan Air Force Station in Ghaziabad, on the outskirts of the Indian capital New Delhi, and was reportedly received by the Indian National Security Advisor, Ajit Doval at the base.[66][67] Her arrival in Delhi was subsequently confirmed by Indian foreign minister S. Jaishankar.[68] Sheikh Hasina is living in a secret location within India under tight security.[66]

Flightradar24 reported that her flight was, at one point, the most tracked flight worldwide, with other civilian aircraft traveling into and out of Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka also being highly tracked.[69] She is expected to proceed to London for her safe passage[70] and seek political asylum in the United Kingdom, where Rehana's eldest daughter, Labour Party MP Tulip Siddiq is Economic Secretary to the Treasury under the incumbent Prime Minister Keir Starmer, while her youngest daughter Azmina Siddiq works for Control Risks as a global risk analysis editor.[71] However, such plans are believed to be on hold due to indications from the UK government that she would not receive legal protection from investigations into the violence in Bangladesh.[66]

Arrest of Awami League leaders

In addition to Sheikh Hasina, several figures associated with her administration and the Awami League fled or attempted to flee Bangladesh. This group included Hasan Mahmud, the former Minister of Foreign Affairs, Zunaid Ahmed Palak, the former Minister of state for Posts, Telecommunications and Information Technology, and Ziaul Ahsan, the former Director General of the National Telecommunication Monitoring Centre. All were detained at Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport on 6 August.[72][73][74] On 7 August two more Awami League leaders were arrested near the country's borders while trying to flee abroad.[75]

Casualties and damage

Reprisal attacks against Awami League supporters and police

On the same day Hasina resigned, protesters vandalized statues of her father Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the former president of Bangladesh, in Dhaka.[76] They also set the Awami League's headquarters in Dhaka ablaze as well. The vandalizing of Mujibur Rahman's statues has been compared with that of Saddam Hussain's statue in Baghdad on 2003. Houses or businesses of several Awami League leaders and activists were attacked.[c] The Indira Gandhi Cultural Centre operated by the Indian Council for Cultural Relations and Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's residence in Dhanmondi where he and his family were assassinated by military personnel in 1975, known as Bangabandhu Memorial Museum, were burnt and ransacked by the demonstrators.[97][98][99] Two pro-government television stations were also forced off-air after being torched by demonstrators,[100] including ATN Bangla.[101] The Jatiya Sangsad Bhaban, which houses the Parliament of Bangladesh, was also stormed by protesters[102] who took 40 weapons from the building's security, although these were later returned by students.[103] The house of the Chief Justice of Bangladesh was vandalized by rioters who climbed the walls.[79] Sheikh Rehana's residence in Gulshan, Dhaka, was also looted.[24]

At least 232 people were reported to have been killed in the three days that followed Sheikh Hasina's resignation.[104] This included at least 29 officials of the Awami League and associated groups as well as their relatives.[105] An Awami League office in Chittagong was also set ablaze by miscreants.[79] Two vehicles of Border Guard Bangladesh were set ablaze by the rioters and five were killed in clashes between BGB and demonstrators.[106] Jails were attacked in the Satkhira and Sherpur districts, leading to prisoners escaping,[107][108] including 596 in Satkhira alone, although more than 400 of them later voluntarily returned within days.[109] An Awami League leader in Satkhira was hacked to death along with four associates after fatally shooting three members of a crowd that attacked his residence.[110] An installation of Bangladesh Ansar and Village Defence Force was also vandalized and partially burnt. Ansar retaliated by killing two demonstrators.[111] In Bogra, a police station was attacked and an Awami League office was set ablaze.[112] A violent mob attacked Baniachang police station in Habiganj and set it ablaze. Police retaliated killing six rioters. A total of 150 people, including police personnel were wounded in the incident.[113]

Six people were killed and more than a hundred wounded in Kushtia when police opened fire on rioters.[114] Seven police stations were burnt and destroyed in Chittagong.[115] A demonstrator was fatally shot by the police in Manikganj, following the vandalizm of a local police station.[116] Despite the peaceful nature of a victory march in Srimangal, police intervention resulted in injuries to more than a hundred participants.[117] In Jessore, at least 24 people, including an Indonesian national, were killed after a hotel belonging to a district leader of the Awami League was set on fire.[118] Two union council chairs were beaten to death by mobs in separate incidents in Khulna and Chandpur.[119][120] Clashes between BGB and demonstrators led to the deaths of six people, including a BGB soldier in Gazipur,[121] where a protest outside a jail also resulted in the escape of 209 inmates.[122] In Kishoreganj, a clash between Awami League leaders and activists led to the death of five individuals and left hundreds injured, including journalists.[123]

Operations at the Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport in Dhaka were suspended for eight hours.[124] The Higher Secondary Certificate examinations, which were originally scheduled for 11 August, had to be postponed. This decision was made after the question papers suffered damage during the attacks on police stations.[125]

On 10 August, the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) dismissed the head of its Bauphal upazila branch following complaints about his alleged involvement in the violence and looting.[126]

Violence against Hindus

Hindus were widely perceived as strong supporters of the Hasina regime. Hours after Hasina's departure, reports surfaced about attacks against Hindus in Bangladesh.[127] Haradhan Roy, a Hindu councilor from the Awami League in Rangpur, and a Hindu school teacher in Dhaka were killed, and more than 100 Hindus were injured in these clashes.[127][128][129] Over 200 houses, businesses and over a dozen temples belonging to the Hindu community were burned, looted and destroyed by mobs in at least 52 of the country's 64 districts since the fall of the Sheikh Hasina-led government on 5 August.[130][131][128][d]

According to most observers, most of these attacks were politically motivated, as the victims were primarily Awami League leaders, activists, and police but some of those attacks were also held against ordinary Hindus with no political background.[25][127][138][27] The coordinators of the student movement denounced these attacks and urged the public not to participate in such violence.[139]

Around 700-800 Hindus tried to flee to India after their houses and businesses were attacked and looted, but were turned back by both countries' border guards.[137] An Awami League leader in bordering Lalmonirhat district was seen spreading rumors and telling the local Hindus to assemble at the border with India and talk to the Indian leaders who are coming at the border to meet them. He was reportedly able to amass hundreds of Hindus at the border before they were dispersed by BGB and police.[140][141][142]

Meanwhile, students and members of the Muslim community, including madrasa students, were seen standing guard at temples and churches to protect them.[143][144][145] Chief adviser to the interim government Muhammad Yunus also denounced the violence, saying that there was no room for discrimination in Bangladesh.[146] He even threatened to resign from the interim government if the violence against minorities, especially Hindus, continued.[147] The interim government also assured that it would "immediately sit with the representative bodies and other concerned groups to find ways to resolve such heinous attacks”.[148]

Disinformation by Indian media

Some Indian media outlets were seen disseminating disinformation regarding attacks on minorities in Bangladesh with an intent to destabilize the country after Hasina's departure. Gobinda Pramanik, president of the Bangladesh Jatiya Hindu Mahajote [bn] (Bangladesh National Hindu Grand Alliance), criticized the Indian media, suggesting that they inaccurately portrayed the situation. Pramanik stated that the incidents of vandalism targeted only the homes of certain Awami League leaders, both Hindu and Muslim, who had a history of aggressive actions. He further noted that members of opposition parties, including the BNP and Jamaat-e-Islami, were involved in protecting Hindu temples and homes from potential attacks.[149][150]

BNP leader Gayeshwar Chandra Roy also refuted claims made by Indian media that his party is anti-Hindu, asserting that the BNP has been inclusive of all communities in Bangladesh and has consistently supported all religious groups. He highlighted his own role as a former minister in a BNP-led government and as a member of the party's highest decision-making body.[151]

Numerous India-based social media accounts circulated misleading videos and images about attacks on Bangladeshi Hindus, using hashtags such as #AllEyesOnBangladeshiHindus and #SaveBangladeshiHindus. These claims were subsequently debunked by several fact-checking organizations.[26][27] A false report also claimed that the house of Bangladeshi cricketer Liton Das had been set on fire, which was later debunked.[152][153] Das himself refuted the claim in a Facebook post.[154]

Quoting a BJP leader, Indian media falsely claimed that more than 10 million Bangladeshi Hindus are heading towards India to seek refuge, adding that Bangladesh is becoming an "Islamic State". According to Bangladeshi political analyst Zahed Ur Rahman, Indian media viewed the situation in Bangladesh through "their islamophobic eye", despite the view in Bangladesh that it was a popular movement.[25]

Analysts Farid Erkizia Bakht and Siddharth Varadarajan suggested that India's intent to destabilize Bangladesh through this disinformation campaign stems from the disappointment of losing a valuable ally like Sheikh Hasina and from apprehensions about the new government in the country.[25]

Aftermath and impact

Restoration of services

As per reports, broadband internet services were reinstated approximately at 1:00 p.m. BST on 5 August,[155] followed by the restoration of cellular internet access after 2:00 p.m. BST.[156] However, access to social media platforms continued to be restricted.[157][158] The curfew was rescinded on 6 August, and offices, businesses, and schools were permitted to resume operations on the same day.[159]

Interim government formation

Main article: Yunus interim government

On 5 August, the Chief of Army Staff, Waker-uz-Zaman, convened a meeting with representatives from BNP, Jatiya Party (Ershad), and Jamaat-e-Islami[160] and called for the creation of an interim government within 48 hours, excluding the Awami League.[161] Subsequent reports indicated that Muhammad Yunus, a Nobel laureate, had been approached to be the head of the interim government. Other possible names for the head of government included Salahuddin Ahmed, a former governor of Bangladesh Bank, retired General Jahangir Alam Chowdhury, and lawyer Sara Hossain.[162] The nomination of Yunus, who accepted the advisory role in the interim government, has also been supported by prominent figures within the student movement.[163] In addition, Waker-uz-Zaman pledged an investigation by the military into the preceding incidents of violence and issued an order prohibiting security forces from opening fire on crowds.[164]

President Mohammed Shahabuddin issued an order for the release of all students who had been detained during the protests, as well as Khaleda Zia, the former prime minister and chairperson of the BNP.[54] Zia has been a long-standing political adversary of Sheikh Hasina. This decision was made unanimously at a meeting attended by major opposition parties and the heads of the armed services.[165] On 6 August, in response to an ultimatum from the student movement that warned of further demonstrations, Shahabuddin dissolved the Jatiya Sangsad.[166] Additionally, a reorganization was carried out within the Bangladesh Armed Forces,[124] while Chowdhury Abdullah Al Mamun was removed as Inspector-General of the Bangladesh Police.[167] Following a meeting with student leaders on 6 August, Shahabuddin formally appointed Yunus on 7 August as head of the interim government,[168] Yunus, who was in Paris, returned to Dhaka on 8 August[169] and was inaugurated later that day along with the rest of his cabinet at the Bangabhaban.[170][171] Among those who joined the interim government as advisers were two leaders of the student movement, Nahid Islam and Asif Mahmud.[172]

Police strike

On 6 August, the Bangladesh Police Service Association initiated a strike, demanding for enhanced security measures for its members. The association expressed regret for the role of the police force in the recent unrest and violence. It stated that its officers were "forced to open fire", subsequently being portrayed as the "villain."[173] Students and several paramilitary personnel were subsequently seen directing traffic and maintaining law and order functions in Dhaka,[174] while Bangladesh Air Force personnel were deployed to secure Hazrat Shahjalal International Airport.[175] The newly-appointed Inspector-General of Police, Md. Moinul Islam, issued an order for all officers to report for duty by the evening of 8 August.[24] On 11 August, Brigadier General (retd) M Sakhawat Hossain, serving as the adviser for home affairs in the interim government, appealed to police officers to resume their duties at their respective stations. He provided assurances that their grievances would be addressed and their demands fulfilled.[176]

Subsequent protests

On 7 August, several officials from the Bangladesh Bank initiated a protest near the governor's office. Their objective was to compel the resignation of certain high-ranking officials due to their alleged involvement in corruption.[177] That same day, one of the bank's deputy governors resigned, with three others expressing their intention to follow suit. On 9 August, the bank's governor, Abdur Rouf Talukder, resigned from his position, citing personal reasons.[178]

On 9 August, the Bangladesh Hindu Jagran Mancha organized a protest in Dhaka condemning the attacks on Hindus.[179] The group called for the establishment of a Ministry of Minorities and a Minority Protection Commission, the implementation of strict laws against attacks on minorities, and a 10% quota in parliament for minority groups.[180] Protests against anti-Hindu attacks were also held in Tangail and Khulna.[181][182] On the same day, thousands of Awami League supporters staged a two-hour blockade on a section of the Dhaka–Khulna highway in Gopalganj, demanding Sheikh Hasina's return.[183] On 10 August, an intervention by the army to disperse the protestors escalated into a confrontation. The clash resulted in 15 individuals being injured and an army vehicle being set ablaze.[184]

On 10 August, Hasnat Abdullah, one of the student movement coordinators, called for protests to be held at the Supreme Court of Bangladesh. Meanwhile another coordinator and interim government adviser, Asif Mahmud, criticized Chief Justice Obaidul Hassan for convening a meeting of the court's Appellate Division without consulting the government and demanded his resignation. Protesters also demanded the resignation of the court's other seven members, accusing them of being highly politicized. After protesters gathered at the court, Hassan stated that he had agreed to resign "in principle".[185][186] Five members of the Appellate Division also resigned.[187]

Financial impact

On 6 August, the Dhaka Stock Exchange (DSE) saw a positive reaction from investors during its first opening following the resignation of Sheikh Hasina. The broad-based index of the DSE, known as DSEX, experienced its largest increase since 3 January. A total of twelve stocks reached their upper circuits, which permit a maximum daily price increase of 10%. This marked a significant improvement from the previous few weeks of student protests, during which most stocks were hitting their lower circuits, restricting the daily price fall to no more than 3%. The indices began with a substantial upward gap, which is considered the strongest opening in the last three to four years.[188][189]

Reactions

Domestic

In her first public address following her release, Khaleda Zia commended "the brave people who were in a do-or-die struggle to make possible the impossible". She emphasized the need for restraint and advocated for "love and peace" as essential in the process of rebuilding Bangladesh.[170] Tarique Rahman, who is currently serving as the acting chair of the BNP and is based in London, declared that "Hasina's resignation is a testament to the power of the people"[190] and urged for "restraint".[124] On 7 August, during a rally in Dhaka, Mirza Fakhrul Islam Alamgir, Secretary General of BNP, called for the holding of fair elections within the next three months.[191]

Muhammad Yunus, who was in Paris undergoing a medical procedure, hailed Hasina's resignation as Bangladesh's "second independence Day".[192] He also committed to returning to Bangladesh "without delay", responding affirmatively to a request from the student movement to guide the interim government.[193]

Sajeeb Wazed, the son and adviser of Sheikh Hasina, initially announced on 5 August that his mother intended to retire from politics. On 7 August, he amended this statement clarifying that both Hasina and the Awami League would continue to be active in the political landscape of Bangladesh.[169] He further mentioned that she would return to the country once elections were declared.[194] On 10 August, he claimed to Reuters that Hasina is still the Prime Minister as she did not get enough time to formally submit her resignation to the President, due to protesters advancing towards her official residence.[195]

Rumour

On 11 August, in what is said to be her first statement published by the Indian media after her fleeing to the country, Sheikh Hasina confirmed that she resigned and conceded defeat to avoid further bloodshed. She attributed her decision to resign to pressures from the USA and urged Awami League supporters to keep their moral high.[196] Shortly thereafter, Wazed refuted the statement as "completely false and fabricated," emphasizing that Hasina "did not make any statement before or after leaving Dhaka".[197] Later, on 12 August, the Rumor Scanner Bangladesh investigated the matter and declared the reports regarding Sheikh Hasina's statement as fake and rumour.[198]
