In a personal account published by Amar Desh on August 5, 2026, author Sibgatullah describes what he says was a strategy to direct the 2024 July movement in Dhaka toward Ganabhaban. He writes that, after reviewing protest routes and confrontation sites across the capital following July 21, he concluded the movement needed a single destination. In his account, that destination was Ganabhaban.
The author portrays the movement as a collective response to 17 years of alleged injustice and repression. He cites the labeling of protesting students as “Razakar” on the night of July 14, alleged attacks by police and Chhatra League on July 15, and the use of tear gas and sound grenades at a campus gathering on July 17. He says reports of deaths and injuries between July 18 and 21 intensified the need to change tactics.
He says a core team worked on a map and plan centered on Ganabhaban. According to his account, the August 3 “one-point” declaration at Shaheed Minar created the opportunity to implement it. He says programmes announced for August 4 and 5 aimed to surround Ganabhaban, and that millions began marching there after breaking barricades on August 5.
