NCP leader Abdul Hannan Masud alleged that Tulip Siddiq, under the guise of nuclear energy deals with Russia, has facilitated the laundering of billions of dollars from Bangladesh. He further claimed that Tulip instigated the shootings on students during the 2024 uprising. “If Dr. Muhammad Yunus meets with her, it would be seen as a betrayal of the people’s movement,” Masud declared. He also criticized certain groups for pushing early elections, similar to the practices of the fleeing Awami League government. “The fall of Sheikh Hasina is not just the fall of her party, but also the collapse of Indian hegemony in Bangladesh,” he asserted.
