ZOOMBANGLA DESK: Sheikh Hasina, Prime Minister of Bangladesh, resigned on Monday and swiftly left the capital, Dhaka. Accompanied by her sister, Sheikh Rehana, she arrived in Agartala, the capital of the Indian state of Tripura, via helicopter, according to the Hindustan Times.
The resignation and departure have prompted Indian authorities to issue a high alert at the India-Bangladesh border. The Border Security Force (BSF) Director General has arrived at the border to oversee security measures, ensuring the situation remains under control, the report states.
Earlier, the BBC reported that Hasina left the country for Agartala by helicopter, marking a significant shift in the political landscape of Bangladesh.
Speaking to the nation, Bangladesh Army Chief General Waker-Uz-Zaman announced that an interim government would be formed. “We will go to the President. Nothing will be achieved through clashes and destruction. Each death will be investigated, and justice will be ensured,” he emphasized.
“We had a good discussion with everyone. The Prime Minister has resigned,” the Army Chief added.
