Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus is set to take the oath as Bangladesh’s interim government head on Thursday at 8:00 pm. His appointment follows the resignation and flight of Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, driven by mass protests against a controversial job quota system. Yunus, known for his microfinance work, has urged calm and restraint in the wake of Hasina’s departure. The military’s support for Yunus and the dissolution of parliament reflect a significant shift in Bangladesh’s political landscape, aimed at restoring stability and addressing ongoing unrest.
