Bangladesh is poised to welcome an interim government after weeks of widespread protests and civil unrest that have gripped the nation.

The political turmoil began in July, with mass demonstrations calling for electoral reforms and the resignation of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina.

Tensions escalated as security forces clashed with protesters, leading to numerous casualties and arrests.

In a significant development, the Bangladeshi military has now stepped in, brokering a deal between the government and opposition groups.

This agreement paves the way for the formation of an interim administration that will oversee new elections within the next six months.

The installation of the interim government is widely seen as a crucial step in restoring stability and addressing the grievances of the Bangladeshi people.

The transition is expected to be a delicate process, with all parties involved committed to ensuring a peaceful and democratic transition.
