Hasina's government fell in August this year. Cases are being filed one after another against Awami League leaders, ministers, MPs including Hasina. Many ministers of Hasina's tenure have already been arrested. On August 5, Mujib and daughter left Dhaka and came to India. On the same day, Mujib's statue was broken, his house at 32 Dhanmondi in Dhaka was attacked and torched by vandalism.
The Awami League alleged that efforts were being made to erase all memories of Bangabandhu and the liberation war. But Awami League also claimed that it is not possible to do that. Incidentally, on August 15, 1975, Bangabandhu was killed in his family at Dhanmondi-32. After Hasina became the prime minister, she decided to observe that day as a national mourning day and declared a public holiday.
The Yunus-led government canceled the holiday this time. In this situation, it is known that there will be no government holiday even on Bangabandhu's birthday. According to several media sources in Bangladesh, the list of holidays is being changed on the orders of the Chief Adviser's Office, that is, the Cabinet Division. A 'note' has also been sent to cancel the 17th March holiday. March 17 will no longer be a public holiday from next year.
It is to be noted that Bangabandhu's picture is going to be removed from the Bangladesh currency. In an interview recently while visiting the United States, Yunus commented that the students have 'erased Bangladesh's past by pressing a button'. Many people claim that he is trying to erase the memory of Mujib and the liberation war. However, Yunus' office claimed that the statement was being misinterpreted.
