The new secondary-level textbooks for Bangladesh’s 2026 academic year include major revisions portraying the Awami League government’s alleged irregularities, corruption, and authoritarian practices. The chapter titled ‘Mass Uprisings in Independent Bangladesh’ in the Bangladesh and Global Studies book highlights the July 2024 student-led uprising, describing it as a response to long-standing political repression and flawed elections under Sheikh Hasina’s rule. The books also discuss the abolition of the caretaker government system in 2011, the controversial elections of 2014, 2018, and 2024, and the eventual fall of the Hasina administration. Additionally, the eighth-grade Bangla textbook has removed Sheikh Mujibur Rahman’s historic March 7 speech. The revised curriculum covers key historical events such as the 1952 Language Movement, the 1971 Liberation War, and the 1990 student uprising. The National Curriculum and Textbook Board (NCTB) confirmed that the changes aim to reflect political transitions, including the restoration of multiparty democracy under Ziaur Rahman and the democratic government led by Khaleda Zia.
