She served five terms in the same position. She resigned to per post on 5th August 2024. Sheikh Hasina is the daughter of Banglades&#8217;s founding father, Mujibur Rahman, she embodies both the country&#8217;s independence struggle and its recent economic boom. Hailed by supporters for her economic pragmatism and social development programs, she is also criticized for growing authoritarianism, crackdowns on dissent, and a decline in democratic freedoms. The recent election, boycotted by the main opposition and marked by low turnout, cemented her dominance while raising concerns about Bangladesh&#8217;s future political landscape. She had to resign from the Prime Minister post amidst the protests across the nation which went out of control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sheikh Hasina fled to India post her resignation and is currently living
