Bangladesh's parliament was officially dissolved on Tuesday, according to a statement from the president’s office. This development came just a day after Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina resigned and fled the country in response to escalating protests calling for her removal.

The dissolution followed a series of intense demonstrations led by student leaders, who had issued a deadline for the parliament's disbandment. The leaders had warned of a "strict programme" if their demands were not met.

In related news, Indian Foreign Minister S. Jaishankar addressed the Rajya Sabha, informing that India is closely monitoring the situation concerning its nationals in Bangladesh. Approximately 19,000 Indians reside there, with around 9,000 being students. Most of these students have already returned to India as of July.

Due to the unrest in Bangladesh, an alert has been issued in several districts of Bihar. Additional Director of Police (Headquarters) J.S. Gangwar confirmed that the alert is focused on districts near the Bangladesh border to ensure safety and preparedness.

The political instability in Bangladesh has raised concerns about regional security and the potential impact on neighboring countries. As the situation continues to develop, international observers and neighboring nations are closely watching for further updates and potential repercussions.

Meanwhile, the Dhaka district office of the Awami League was set ablaze by protesters, according to Bangladesh newspaper Prothom Alo. The fire was reported around 4 p.m. on Monday. Additionally, the office of Awami League President Sheikh Hasina, located at 3/A Dhanmondi in Dhaka, was also targeted and set on fire. Protesters were seen celebrating Sheikh Hasina’s resignation and chanting slogans in the streets.

The demonstrations, initially sparked by demands to end a quota system for government jobs, have evolved into a larger protest against Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina and her ruling Awami League party. Clashes in Dhaka on Sunday resulted in at least 95 fatalities, including 14 police officers, and left hundreds more injured, as reported by Prothom Alo. The situation remains tense as the unrest continues to impact the city and its residents.
