A Dhaka court yesterday ordered the confiscation of Sudha Sadan, a property registered to Sheikh Hasina’s children, and immovable assets of Sheikh Rehana and Radwan Mujib Siddiq.
The marriage tax imposed by the Dhaka South City Corporation (DSCC) was officially repealed on January 21, 2025, after being in effect for just over a year.
DSCC would charge Tk 200 for a remarriage if the existing wife was mentally unstable or unable to bear children
The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) will launch an investigation against former deputy commissioners (DCs) and superintendents of police (SPs) over their alleged irregularities during the 2018 national election.
The Anti-Corruption Commission has ramped up its activities following the ouster of prime minister Sheikh Hasina on August 5 last year. The commission has completed investigations and filed cases against Hasina and several senior Awami League leaders after their removal in a mass uprising.
A leap day comes once every four years -- a moment outside the ordinary, an extra page in the calendar where possibilities stretch a little further.
As the Ekushey Boi Mela drew to a close, an air of bittersweet nostalgia enveloped Suhrawardy Udyan and Bangla Academy. Thousands of book lovers, young and old, meandered through the colourful stalls, their hearts heavy with the impending farewell to the largest book fair.
After today, the fairgrounds will once again fall silent. While political gatherings may hum within the premises, the sound of flipping book pages will be absent.

This year’s Amar Ekushey Boi Mela has been adorned with the colours of revolution. The fair is decorated in red, black, and white -- the colors symbolising rebellion, mourning, and hope. The visual landscape of the fair encapsulates the memories of the July uprising.
