The political history of the world is rife with revolutions. Some were peaceful while others remained violent in nature. Revolution is meant to bring a sudden change, especially a positive one, in the political system of an area, country or a region. However, there have also been revolutions that have caused significant setbacks in their respective countries. What today's revolution in Bangladesh will bring is yet to be seen. The army appears to be in control for now, there was a short term goal of dethroning Sheikh Hasina, and there are regional powers such as India which are likely to intervene in the country's internal affairs.
All of these factors indicate that this revolution may not bring sustainable change and may cause a significant setback instead. But, if elections are held as soon as possible and international cooperation is provided, the country can return to its democratic path and setbacks can be avoided.
