Recently, a video has been circulated on social media claiming that police carried out a brutal baton charge on protesting students in Thakurgaon on July 24, 2025. However, upon verification, it has been found that the video is actually one year old. It dates back to a student…
Hindutva propaganda account Voice of Bangladeshi Hindus shared the translated post of the fake DrPuja Mukherjee Facebook ID. The account claimed to be an Indian doctor who came to treat injured Milestone students in Dhaka and alleged that she felt unwelcome and like a burden…

Just watched the @AJIunit documentary on #Bangladesh's July protests. Really excellent piece of work. It clearly sets out the narrative of the three weeks of protests as well as being able to stitch together its investigative exposures with the raw emotion of family stories. It…
What this person misses is that many governments, even govts of wealthy countries, often invite + encourage people to donate -- first, to augment what the govt itself can commit, and second, to give citizens the opportunity to help. Sometimes, private donations to independent…
The #Bangladesh interim government can no doubt be criticised for certain things it has or has not done but to suggest "It has done nothing but waste public's fund and dodge accountability at every turn," is simply ridiculous and not based on facts. Indeed, it has some…

Well said, @TheDavidBergman
At the same time, after Gopalganj and Chittagong, it is important that the students party has the right to assembly with appropriate protection from violent attacks. Seems a responsible policy after recent attacks.
Comprehensive coverage of the Congressional briefing on Bangladesh we organized in Washington DC on the anniversary of July Revolution from @centristnattv. The event was supported by Congressmen @RepLloydDoggett & @RepMcGovern who delivered opening remarks. Calls for continued…

A graphic video showing a brutal murder has recently gone viral on social media, accompanied by false claims suggesting that the incident occurred in Bangladesh. The posts allege that the video is evidence of the deteriorating law and order situation in the country under the…
This is very good news. Only islamists and the army in #bangladesh seem to have a problem with it. A good and bold move by the interim government.
PRESS STATEMENT DHAKA, 18 July 2025 — The Government of Bangladesh has signed a three-year Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) to field a mission in the country aimed at supporting the promotion and…
We thought the @EconomicTimes was better than this. Hopefully in the future it will be. Thanks for setting the record straight, @presswingfacts !
On July 16, Indian media outlet The Economic Times falsely reported that Bangladesh had plunged into crisis after Islamists attacked the Awami League in the birthplace of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. SEE: archive.ph/TUKym However, this portrayal of the Gopalganj incident is…
Thanks for uncovering this, @Sohan_RSB !
Propagandist @salah_shoaib shared an old Indian video, falsely claiming it to be from Bangladesh.
Yes, let peaceful rallies proceed! Good to hold those responsible for impeding them accountable.
Statement of the Interim Government on the attacks on peaceful NCP rally in Gopalganj DHAKA, July 16: The use of violence today in Gopalganj is utterly indefensible. Preventing young citizens from peacefully holding a rally to commemorate the one-year anniversary of their…
He marched for a future he would never see—so that other Bangladeshis could. Abu Sayed became more than a student protester. He became a symbol of sacrifice and hope. As Bangladesh looks ahead, we carry his courage with us and celebrate him in our spirits as time brings us to one…

Excellent investigative reporting on high-level corruption under the Awami League regime.

When will the misinformation ever stop? It breeds anti-India sentiment in Bangladesh and anti-Bangladesh sentiment in India which serve almost no one. Thanks @Sohan_RSB for exposing these lies. Great work!
One of the most vile propagandists and a shameless pathological liar, @salah_shoaib, has falsely claimed that the Yunus government did not recognize the nine Hindus killed during the July movement due to their religion. This is a blatant lie. All nine victims were officially…
