In Dhaka, Bangladesh, student-led rallies marked the anniversary of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s ouster, calling for democratic reforms and a “new Bangladesh.” The newly formed National Citizen Party, led by Nahid Islam, unveiled a 24-point agenda seeking a new constitution and deeper democratic transformation. Simultaneously, the student wing of the opposition Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP) also rallied, with exiled leader Tarique Rahman urging support from youth for upcoming elections. With the Awami League banned and political uncertainty looming, concerns grow about whether the nation will transition toward democracy or fall into further unrest under interim leader Muhammad Yunus.

Abba Father, bring unity in the midst of political turmoil. Let hope rise among the youth, and lead the nation toward lasting peace (The Holy Bible, Psalm 106:3).

Lord, we pray for the people of Bangladesh as they seek peace and justice. Guide leaders with wisdom and courage to uphold truth and restore dignity (The Holy Bible, Proverbs 14:34).
