Anti-discrimination Students Movement (ADSM) and National Citizen's Committee (NCC) confirmed plans to establish a new political party by February. The party will be led by students and youths, with its formation guided by public opinion.
On Wednesday, Hasnat Abdullah, convener of the Anti-discrimination Students Movement (ADSM) declared that in a press conference at the movement's central office at capital's Banglamotor.
While they have successfully removed the fascist Awami League from power, the deeply rooted fascist elements within the state structure remain intact.
Mentioning that despite the fall of Sheikh Hasina's government, the struggle is far from over Hasnat stated, "We have brought down Hasina and her residence, Ganabhaban, but the broader state system that enables oppression and exploitation is still in place. The ultimate victory has not yet been achieved".
Hasnat pointed out that Bangladesh's political history has long reflected the people's desire for a just and exploitation-free society, be it in 1947, during the Liberation War of 1971, or the 1990 uprising. However, he criticised existing political structures and parties for failing to meet the aspirations of the masses.
