Orders issued by Army Headquarters reassign key operational commanders and senior intelligence officials, including the head of DGFI, the country’s premier military intelligence agency.
The commission has alluded to India, in its report on the 2009 Bangladesh Rifles revolt, saying Hasina conspired with a 'foreign force' to 'weaken the Bangladesh Army'.
With every passing day the army is being dragged deeper into a quagmire of internal politics. 'This may soon lead to a crisis stalling the elections,' said a Bangladeshi journalist.
Warrants were issued against 32 individuals, including ex-PM Hasina & her military secretary Major General Kabir Ahmed. Detentions are among the most extensive within armed forces.
Without a transparent and independent investigation, the Bangladesh Army’s attempt to dismiss the UN’s findings appears to be a shoddy way of hiding the truth.
General Waker-Uz-Zaman was speaking at an army memorial event. This comes after student unions of BNP & Jamaat blamed each other for violence gripping the country.
The banned Islamist outfit Hizb ut-Tahrir is allegedly behind Dhaka’s student-led ISIS flag marches. Its true aim is to use the Bangladesh Army to seize power; it even planned a coup in 2011.
Friends who would never be seen dead at a political event turned up at Jantar Mantar with their kids. Here's what broke the rules of dissent under Modi.
Three Indian companies are working on Shahed-like drones. Besides IG Defence, Bengaluru-based NewSpace Research and Technologies has developed the Sheshnaag-150, while Lucknow-based Hoverit has the Divyastra.

After all, the tragedies of Pahalgam were surely a figment of your imagination. The targeted violence against East Pakistan’s Hindus and the resulting waves of illegal immigration are merely illusions of your troubled mind.
Naturally, I will invoke ‘secularism’ and ‘professionalism’ to pat myself on the back, while safely avoiding shedding a tear for the soldiers who actually bleed at the borders to secure my right to be oblivious.
Because at the end of the day, I am compulsively compelled to say grand, inconsequential things… very frequently
For me, the world begins and ends with India. Pakistan and Bangladesh are different colours on the political map of South Asia. So, don’t think too much about what is happening in GHQ in Rawalpindi and its equivalent in Dacca. Our armed forces have a long, proud tradition of professionalism and secularism. Any dilution would impair the cutting edge calibre required to deal with a two front war.
