This news article from The Daily Star (Bangladesh), published August 5, 2026, marks the second anniversary of the death of Abu Sayed, a university student killed by police on July 16, 2024, during the Anti-Discrimination Student Movement (quota reform protests) at Begum Rokeya University in Rangpur. The article focuses on his grieving parents — his mother Monowara Begum, who pleads to see her son's killers punished before she dies, and his ailing father Mokbul Hossain — and recounts how Abu Sayed stood with arms outstretched facing police before being shot dead, an image that became an iconic symbol of resistance. The article also covers the legal aftermath: on April 9, 2026, the International Crimes Tribunal-2 convicted multiple police officers, sentencing two — ASI Amir Hossain and constable Sujan Chandra Roy — to death, with others receiving life imprisonment or shorter terms. Additionally, it notes that a planned memorial project at the university, including a museum and monument announced in 2025, has not yet begun construction due to pending government approvals.

This editorial from The Daily Star, published on August 5, 2026, marks the second anniversary of Bangladesh's July Mass Uprising, which ousted Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina on August 5, 2024. The article reflects on the democratic aspirations that drove the uprising and the subsequent adoption of the July National Charter, a reform roadmap aimed at establishing democratic governance, human rights protections, and rule of law. The piece expresses concern that political unity has fractured since the transition to an elected government, with the ruling BNP and the Jamaat-led alliance (including the NCP) deadlocked over how to implement key constitutional reforms — such as creating an upper house and amending Article 70. The editorial also notes that global economic instability, worsened by the Russia-Ukraine war and a U.S.-Israel conflict against Iran, is compounding Bangladesh's domestic economic challenges. The article concludes with a call for sincere dialogue between the ruling party and opposition to restore the unity of the uprising and complete its unfinished reform agenda before political infighting causes further damage.

This news article from the Dhaka Tribune (published May 24, 2025) reports on a press conference held by National Citizen Party (NCP) Convener Nahid Islam, in which he urged Bangladesh's interim government led by Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus to announce a unified roadmap addressing three key priorities: justice for mass killings during the July-August 2024 uprising, comprehensive national reforms, and free and fair elections. Nahid Islam emphasized that these three roadmaps must be announced together to build public confidence and political trust, and called on Yunus to remain in charge and engage all political parties in dialogue. He also clarified that the NCP has no formal relationship with two student leaders serving as government advisers (Asif Mahmud and Mahfuj Alam), stating they would need to leave government if they wish to participate in electoral politics.

This document is a webpage from "জুলাই আর্কাইভ" (July Archive), a Bengali-language archive dedicated to preserving memories and accounts of the July 2024 mass uprising (গণঅভ্যুত্থান) in Bangladesh, which was a student-led protest movement against the Sheikh Hasina government. The page is a curated collection of video testimonials and news reports from major Bangladeshi media outlets, featuring firsthand accounts from protesters, injured participants, and key organizers of the movement. Specific topics covered include the death of martyr Abu Saeed, violence in areas like Mirpur, Rampura, and Jatrabari, the quota reform movement's key organizers (such as Umama Fatema and Abdul Kader), and stories of ordinary people who played notable roles during the uprising. The archive's stated mission is to document and preserve the history of the movement — explicitly quoting the principle that "the struggle of people against power is the struggle of memory against forgetting" — while noting that individual testimonials alone cannot fully determine each participant's role or contribution.
