Sheikh Hasina was counted by protesters on 5 August last year.
The Bangladesh government has decided to convert former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s old official house ‘Ganbhavan’ into a museum. It will be called ‘July Revolution Memorial Museum’.
Sheikh Hasina’s father and the first President of Bangladesh, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, re -built this house. Earlier this place was known as Estate Rajbadi.
Ganbhavan is in Sher-e-Bangla city of Dhaka, which is near Parliament House. The Bangladesh government used it as an official house of the leader of the country.
Sheikh Hasina came to live here in 2010 and till 5 August 2024 i.e. 15 years this was her home. Last year, shortly after his coup, sabotage and robbery started here.

The mob attacked and looted women’s clothes
The crowd looted saris, decorative items, watches, sofas, luxury handbags, televisions, fish and even women’s clothes from here. Pictures of robbery went viral on social media. The officials later claimed that the looted goods were refunded.
The interim government with the leadership of Mohammad Yunus, the head of the interim government of Bangladesh, announced Ganbhavan to make it a museum, describing Ganbhavan as a sign of misrule of Sheikh Hasina. This museum is being built in memory of the protesters killed in last year’s violence.
The Ministry of Culture of Bangladesh has proposed 200 posts for the management of this museum.

Many signs associated with Sheikh Hasina and her father have been continuously attacked in Bangladesh for the last one year. In the last 12 months, the statue of Sheikh Mujib was broken and the nameplate in many public places was also removed.
Apart from this, many chapters related to them were replaced in school books and photographs on the note were also removed.
The interim government had also canceled 8 government holidays of freedom and the days associated with the founder. Sheikh Mujiburrahman was the first President of Bangladesh. He was also the Prime Minister of the country from 17 April 1971 to 15 August 1975.
Mujibur Rahman, father of former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, also played a big role in bringing Bangladesh independence from Pakistan. Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was murdered on 15 August 1975 at his house.
Sheikh Hasina has been living in India for one year
Sheikh Hasina left the country on 5 August last year and came to India. Actually, students were protesting against him.
On June 5 in Bangladesh, the High Court implemented a 30% quota system in the job, protesting the students of universities in Dhaka against this reservation.
This reservation was being given to the families of freedom fighters. However, this reservation was later abolished by the Hasina government.
After this, students started protesting demanding his resignation. A large number of students and common people took to the road against Hasina and her government.
Two months after this Protest, he resigned as Prime Minister on 5 August. After this the interim government was established.
After violent demonstrations, Sheikh Hasina left the country and came to India sitting in a helicopter.
