The student activists who played a crucial role in toppling former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s government last year have announced the formation of a new political party. The group, known as the Democratic Student Council, emerged from the Students Against Discrimination movement, which led mass protests and demonstrations. Their goal is to push for democratic reforms and represent the aspirations of a new generation in Bangladesh. The move comes as the country prepares for upcoming elections, with political tensions running high. The formation of this party signals a major shift in Bangladesh’s political landscape.
