Bangladesh Under Awami Tyranny
Bangladesh under the Hasina-led traumatically tyrannical and transgressive Awami regime is a story of disaster and damnation. The fraud and fascist regime, a lackey of Indian hegemonism and Hindutvaism, recklessly pursues a policy of death and destruction, at least since 2009. The country used to be ruled with the same policy of elimination and annihilation during the time of her father Sheikh Mujib in 1972-1975 as well. The miserable condition led to his unlamented death and dismissal, to the joy and relief of the people of all walks of life, including his own Awami party and the armed forces. Now the situation under his daughter Sheikh Hasina is much worse. She is at the top of an Indian p...
The Jamaat Question in Bangladesh
The Jamaat Question in Bangladesh addresses the complex intersection of global politics and local dynamics in Bangladesh, particularly in relation to Bangladesh Jamaat-e-Islami (Jamaat). With multidisciplinary insights and perspectives, the contributors to this volume provide an objective socio-historical analysis of Islam, politics and society in Bangladesh. Separating fact from fiction, they attempt to uncover the truth about Jamaat, the largest Islam-based political party in the country. Suppressed and marginalized by the BAL regime, Jamaat remains active in the social landscape of Bangladesh. What makes Jamaat so resilient against all odds? Can it peacefully coexist with rival political parties in a polarised nation such as Bangladesh? This book seeks to answer these crucial questions. An essential read for those interested in Bangladeshi politics and political Islam.
Bangladesh: Social Media Outcries Against the Awami Fascism
This is an edited collection of email comments, FB statuses, WhatsApp texts, and YouTube Video/Talk Show links, with reference to online articles and editorials mostly in the UK-based popular and patriotic outlet -- www.amardesh.co.uk -- providing a dissident, yet an authentic and authoritative narrative of the political scenario of today’s Bangladesh under the gag order of the pro-Indian Hasina-led Awami fascism for about fourteen years now. All contents are critical of the Indianized fascist Awami regime, which has banished free press since 2009. All forms of mass media, print or electronic, are in complete control of the fascist lackeys and loyalists, who, in their ludicrous and patheti...
India’s Hegemonic Design in Bangladesh
India is a postcolonial Third World country, rather a conglomerate of diverse nations, who either became parts of a 'mega nation' at the time of the Partition, by default; or were coerced into joining the artificial, fractured entity. Kashmir, Hyderabad, Goa, Mysore, and several other princely states are examples of territories grabbed by New Delhi. The real India--as opposed to the so-called 'Shining India'-is where about 70% people are neglected and about 35% people are below poverty line. The Seven Sisters in the northeast (Arunachal, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Mizoram, Nagaland, Sikkim, and Tripura) are completely different from the rest of the country, both in economic and political ter...
President Ziaur Rahman: Legendary Leader of Bangladesh
President Ziaur Rahman holds a unique distinction to make the historic declaration of the Independence of Bangladesh. He then led the glorious liberation war to victory in 1971, and then became the maker of modern Bangladesh in 1975-1981. He succeeded where Sheikh Mujibur Rahman failed, both as a political leader and as an administrator. In view of his crucial role at the time of the creation of Bangladesh and thereafter, President Zia was perhaps the most phenomenally popular figure of his country. His short life of forty-five years was like an intense flare of incandescent light. Even after forty-two years since his assassination by some deviant army officers, with Indian instigation and i...
Bangladesh in Bondage
This book brings together a collection of essays about the untenable political status quo in Bangladesh under Sheikh Hasina. Since democratization in the 1990s, Bangladeshi political life has been characterized by fierce battles over the role of religion in society, corruption, and the obstacles to constructing a society with freedom of expression and rule of law, independent from the influence of powerful neighboring countries. Academic freedom and other human rights issues have hindered the study of Bangladesh heretofore, and corruption, police abuses, and election rigging are common as well as widely documented. In this passionate, sometimes personal exploration of the issues of social justice, rule of law, and the democratic process in Bangladesh, the book offers a valuable case study of how an Asian developmental state is otherwise regressing backwards morally, socially, and politically. The Bangladeshi struggle for sovereignty, prosperity and democracy documented in this book will be of interest to political scientists, scholars of South Asia, and those of Islam.

A Soldier's Debt
When a brutal military regime commits one of the worst genocides in history against its own people, a loyal soldier turns rebel to avenge the deaths of those innocent millions of his community. He makes a daredevil escape through own deployments, reaches the "other side" and trains the guns on the very killers he once swore to serve. After months of bloody war, the soldier and his fellow fighters win victory. Bangladesh is born. That soldier, an army captain, fulfills a debt to his people. He tells his story in A Soldier's Debt. A Soldier's Debt is an emotion packed personal account of atrocities and triumph seen through the eyes and soul of a man on the ground. It captures intense internal conflicts against a setting fully loaded with suspense, bravery and thrills. In 300 pages of in-your-face details, the soldier (author) walks the reader through an escape that changes one's life and a conflict that changes the world. Reader will relive the period, as writer and reader become one.

War and Secession
A decade after the 1971 wars in South Asia, the principal decisionmakers were still uncertain why wars so clearly unwanted had occurred. The authors reconstruct the complex decisionmaking process attending the break-up of Pakistan and the subsequent war between India and Pakistan. Much of their data derive from interviews conducted with principal players in each of the countries immediately involved-Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh-including Indira Gandhi and leaders of the Awami League in Bangladesh. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press's mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1990.
