Bangladesh opposition holds rally seeking PM Hasina’s resignation
Al Jazeera, 12 Jan 2023
Thousands of supporters of Bangladesh’s main opposition party have rallied across Bangladeshi cities to demand Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s resignation and the formation of a caretaker government to conduct general elections.
The Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) and its allies staged protests in the capital Dhaka and nine other cities on Wednesday, the latest of several demonstrations in recent months amid mounting anger over the rising cost of living.
The opposition and rights groups have criticised the Hasina government for cracking down on anti-government protests.
