Political crisis in Bangladesh.
Bangladesh is currently facing major political violence. According to the updates received so far, the protesters have entered the country’s PM residence. Sources have informed that amid the violence and protests, Sheikh Hasina has resigned from the post of Prime Minister of Bangladesh and has also left the country. This incident has brought back memories of the events that took place in Bangladesh in the year 1975. When Sheikh Hasina’s father and then PM of Bangladesh Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was assassinated and Hasina had to take refuge in India. Let us know this whole story.
The entire family was murdered on 15 August 1975
After the independence of Bangladesh, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman became the Prime Minister. However, in the year 1975, a section of the army revolted against him. The army officers killed Mujibur Rahman along with 18 members of his family. After this, there was a huge political upheaval in Bangladesh and military rule continued in the country for the next several years.
How was Sheikh Hasina’s life saved?
In fact, 15 days before the assassination of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, Sheikh Hasina and her sister left the country and went to Germany. Hasina was in Germany with her husband MA Wazed Mia. Her husband was a nuclear scientist and was doing research after PhD. There, he got information about the murder of the entire family.
India gave asylum
After the murder of Sheikh Hasina’s entire family, the then Prime Minister of India Indira Gandhi assured her of protection and shelter in India. After this, Sheikh Hasina reached New Delhi with her family. Hasina’s family was kept under tight security to protect them from any danger. They were given a house on Pandara Road in Delhi. Her husband also stayed with Hasina. After living in India for about 6 years, Sheikh Hasina returned to Bangladesh in 1981.
