The South Asia Institute cordially invites you to the event "Discussion on the Future of Democracy in Bangladesh", chaired by Prof. Dr. Rahul Mukherji from the Political Science Department, accompanied by Mr. Abdullah Al-Farooq, Dr. Dieter Reinhardt, Dr. A.S.M. Mostafizur Rahman and Mr. Aniruddha Kar. to take place in the CATS Lecture Hall on Friday, August 16, 2024.

Bangladesh has recently undergone a notable shift towards authoritarianism, deviating from its initial trajectory towards democracy. Despite increasing levels of oppression, the country has witnessed the ascendance of a student-lead and seemingly military-backed people’s movement that ousted the ruling party and compelled former Prime Minister, Sheikh Hasina, to flee the country. The Department of Political Science invites you to join our discussion and to assess the importance of of these developments for the future of democracy in Bangladesh.

Thursday, 15. August.
