In the statement, Badruddin described the July 2024 Uprising as the “most explosive and most transformative” in Bangladesh’s history. 'AN EXCEPTIONAL EVENT'Introducing himself at the outset, Badruddin wrote that the July Uprising was not only exceptional for Bangladesh but for the entire Indian subcontinent. “The uprising expelled the Awami League not only from power, but also from the people’s trust. 'AWAMI LEAGUE LAWMAKERS HAD NO ROLE IN 1971'Badruddin alleged that Awami League MPs, ministers and leaders had little role in the 1971 Liberation War itself, saying it was fought mainly by students and the children of farmers and workers. Thus banning the Awami League is not a matter of political principle but of national security."
