Bangladesh c.bank governor resigns amidst growing unrest

Bangladesh’s central bank governor has stepped down amid escalating protests that have rocked the nation. The move follows the resignations of four deputy governors earlier this week, as demonstrators target officials appointed during Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina’s tenure.

While Bangladesh Bank Governor Abdur Rouf Talukder’s resignation has been tendered, it has not been accepted by the government due to the critical nature of the position. The protests, initially sparked by student grievances, have broadened to encompass wider discontent, with citizens calling for accountability and reform.
