Muhammad Yunus

His reputation of being a 'Nobel laureate' and a champion of 'microfinance' gave hopes of 'renewed democracy' to the Bangladeshis. But the facade could only last 10 months. The growing discontentment, across all sections of society, against the interim government has now left Muhammad Yunus cornered.

Bangladesh Army chief General Waker-uz-Zaman has reiterated his opposition to the proposed ‘humanitarian corridor’ to Myanmar, saying there will be “no bloody corridor business”.

India's restrictions on imports from Bangladesh via land ports will impact goods worth USD 770 million, accounting for nearly 42 per cent of total bilateral imports.

'Hizb ut-Tahrir' has now found a political space under the Yunus regime. The organisation was peviously banned by the Sheikh Hasina government in October 2009 due to security concerns.

The interim government's decision, which is likely to increase the import time, did not sit right with Bangladeshi garment and knitwear exporters.

Indian government on Wednesday revoked the transshipment facility given to Bangladesh. Now Bangladeshi exporters will have to use longer routes, which will add significant delays and cost to the shipments

A separate letter detailing the actions by Bangladesh will be sent by the Commerce Adviser to the US Trade Representative soon, the statement said.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi met the Chief Advisor of the government of Bangladesh, Muhammad Yunus in Bangkok on Friday during the sidelines of the 6th BIMSTEC Summit

Bangldesh has at least 50 ethnic groups including many Indian tribes who follow Hinduism and other Indian religions.

Anjuman highlighted that a recent report by a Bangladesh newspaper revealed several of Muhammad Yunus's advisors have been using multiple vehicles meant for public service, diverting them for personal use and violating the rules that allow only one vehicle per advisor.
