Muhammad Yunus Leads Bangladesh’s Interim Government Amid Political Upheaval

The Nobel laureate takes charge after Sheikh Hasina's resignation, aiming to restore stability and address economic disparities.

Yunus, an economist known for pioneering microfinance, was sworn in following weeks of violent protests against Hasina's rule.
The protests, initially driven by student discontent over job quotas, escalated into a broader movement against corruption and inequality.
Yunus faces the challenge of re-establishing law and order, ensuring fair elections, and addressing economic grievances.
The international community, including India and the US, has expressed support for Yunus's interim leadership.
Hasina's departure has left a vacuum, with her son pledging the Awami League's continued involvement in politics.
