Bangladesh’s July Charter faces backlash from students over unclear reforms
Update: 2025-10-27
Description
Bangladesh’s interim government has unveiled the July Charter, named after last year’s student-led uprising that ousted the prime minister, Sheikh Hasina. Critics say it lacks legal weight and clarity, while student groups have refused to sign it, staging protests outside parliament. The charter promises term limits and accountability for past abuses, but activists argue it’s merely symbolic without enforcement. Many citizens express frustration over weak governance and slow reform. Analysts warn the charter risks losing public trust if not backed by concrete action. The document highlights Bangladesh’s fragile transition as elections approach. Al Jazeera’s Tanvir Chowdhury reports from Dhaka.
