Non-cooperation movement (2024) - Wikipedia

This Wikipedia article covers the 2024 Non-cooperation Movement in Bangladesh, a mass uprising that took place on August 4–5, 2024, which successfully forced Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina to resign and flee to India. The movement, rooted in opposition to authoritarianism and triggered by what protesters called a "July massacre," involved demonstrations, civil disobedience, arson, and the storming of key government buildings including the Ganabhaban (the Prime Minister's residence) and the national parliament. The article covers key topics including: the causes and methods of the uprising (led primarily by student groups like Students Against Discrimination), the outcomes (Hasina's resignation, arrest of Awami League leaders, formation of an interim government), and the casualties (at least 600 deaths estimated by OHCHR, 38 police killed, and 1 journalist killed). It also addresses the aftermath, including violence against minorities and Awami League supporters, a security and constitutional crisis, and both domestic and international reactions.
