How did a student-led revolt topple a government? Who betrayed Sheikh Hasina? What is next for Bangladesh?
In 2024, Bangladesh was convulsed by its most dramatic political upheaval in decades. What began as student protests over job quotas swelled into a mass uprising that brought millions into the streets and forced Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina – once unassailable after fifteen years in power – to flee to India.
This book is the first full chronicle of that extraordinary year. It traces how simmering frustrations with unemployment, authoritarianism and dynastic politics erupted into open revolt. In an exclusive conversation for the book, Hasina has blamed the US and her successor Nobel laureate Mohammad Yunus for plotting her downfall using students’ ire as shield.
To many, Yunus’s elevation symbolized a break from the past. A year on, the rising influence of Islamist groups like the Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami threatens internal peace and regional stability even as the country faces a massive financial crisis.
Drawing on eyewitness testimony, political analysis and regional context, Inshallah Bangladesh reveals how a nation on the brink tried to redefine itself, why the journey has been ridden with pitfalls and why the aftershocks of 2024 will shape South Asia for years to come.
