A commentary published on 25 May 2026 in the newspaper Amar Desh argues that the political changes following the so-called July revolution have allowed greater public accountability in Bangladesh. The writer claims that citizens can now openly criticize the government and demand justice, citing the prime minister’s visit to the family of a murdered child as an example of a new, more responsive leadership. The article contrasts this with previous regimes, which the author describes as repressive and unaccountable.

The piece discusses the rise of mob justice and mob violence, linking them to long-standing failures in the judicial system. It references incidents in Chattogram and at a school where public anger erupted due to perceived impunity for crimes such as rape and child abuse. The author distinguishes between spontaneous public outrage and politically motivated violence, suggesting that some groups exploit unrest to discredit the current administration.

The commentary concludes that Prime Minister Tarique Rahman’s government, described as born of the July revolution, must identify instigators of violence and maintain stability despite internal and external challenges.
