Joy Bangla’ as the national slogan:
The Supreme Court of Bangladesh has stayed a High Court verdict that declared ‘Joy Bangla’ as the country’s national slogan. The slogan, popularized by Sheikh Mujibur Rahman during Bangladesh’s liberation movement, had been officially recognized as the national slogan under the previous government led by his daughter, Sheikh Hasina. The Supreme Court’s decision comes amidst political shifts and changes in government policy, highlighting the complexities surrounding national identity and governance in Bangladesh.
