Mystery of Sheikh Hasina's Resignation: A Political Puzzle Unfolds

Bangladesh's President, Mohammed Shahabuddin, has publicly claimed he lacks documentary evidence of Sheikh Hasina's resignation as Prime Minister before her sudden departure to India. The President discussed the political turmoil of August, following Hasina's departure amidst student-led protests. Questions arise about constitutional procedures and public statements from authorities.

Bangladesh's President, Mohammed Shahabuddin, has stirred controversy by stating there is no documented evidence of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's resignation preceding her abrupt departure amidst political unrest.

In remarks to Manab Zamin, Shahabuddin recounted confusion on August 5, as Hasina's expected visit to Bangabhaban was unexpectedly canceled. Her resignation remains undocumented despite widespread belief otherwise, increasing political tension.

Contradictory statements have emerged, with legal adviser Dr. Asif Nazrul highlighting potential inconsistencies in the President's earlier declarations. The Bangladesh Nationalist Party has accused the President of falsehoods, igniting further debate in the nation.
