The student-led protests in Bangladesh, which ultimately led to the ouster of prime minister Sheikh Hasina, underscore the powerful influence grassroots movements can have on political landscapes. The students mobilized a widespread and dynamic campaign that resonated across the nation, bringing critical issues to the forefront. Their determination and organization demonstrated the potential of civic engagement to drive systemic change. This serves as a powerful lesson for other nations, particularly for the citizens of Pakistan, who have been financially burdened and left without support. The success of Bangladesh's youth movement shows that collective action can be a catalyst for meaningful change, even in the face of adversity.
