Bangladesh faces escalating political violence following Sheikh Hasina's removal from power last August. The interim government struggles to control widespread unrest as citizens experience mounting insecurity. Political parties previously united against the Awami League have turned against each other in fierce competition for control. The National Citizens' Party emerged from student protests and has gained significant influence. The Awami League remains banned from participating in elections.

Violence erupted during the NCP's national campaign marking the July uprising anniversary. Party members clashed with former Awami League student supporters in Gopalganj on July 16. The confrontation resulted in five deaths and over fifty injuries after protesters threw crude explosives. Reports indicate NCP supporters attacked civilians while military personnel provided crowd control support.

The NCP actively works to eliminate Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's historical legacy from public spaces. Authorities have removed portraits, renamed institutions, and demolished monuments associated with Bangladesh's founding father. International observers condemn these actions as threats to democratic principles and historical preservation.
