Bangladesh’s interim government, under Muhammad Yunus, convened an emergency meeting amid rising tensions with political parties and the military. The administration cautioned that it may resort to ‘public-backed action’ if faced with unrealistic demands. Blaming opposition forces for ongoing disruptions, the government reaffirmed its commitment to conducting elections, enacting reforms, and upholding justice. Meanwhile, political parties are demanding a transparent election timeline, and the Army Chief has insisted that polls must take place by December.
