An opinion piece by Md. Mahmudul Hasan, published on March 13, 2026, reflects on Bangladesh’s 2024 July Revolution that ended Sheikh Hasina’s rule and led to the formation of an interim government under Muhammad Yunus, followed by the February 2026 election that brought Tarique Rahman’s BNP to power. The author questions whether Bangladesh can maintain justice and stability or fall back into corruption and repression.
Drawing parallels with Egypt’s 1952 July Revolution, the article reviews how Egypt’s overthrow of King Farouk failed to deliver lasting peace or freedom. Despite initial hopes, Egypt returned to authoritarianism under Nasser, with continued political repression and foreign influence. The author cites Egyptian writer Zaynab al-Ghazali’s memoir to illustrate the persistence of state brutality.
The piece concludes that Bangladesh’s new leadership must act wisely to preserve its hard-won freedom and avoid Egypt’s mistakes. The success of the July Revolution, the author argues, depends on the sincerity and prudence of the country’s political leaders.
