Months after Bangladesh's former PM Sheikh Hasina's ousting, Bangladesh is set to remove the image of ‘Bangabandhu’ Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the country's founding father, from its currency, Dhaka Tribune reported. Bangladesh's New Currency Design The Bangladesh Bank has begun the process of printing new banknotes, which will feature symbols of the July protests, including religious landmarks, Bengali cultural elements, and "graffiti" created during the student-led uprising. As Sheikh Hasina fled the country, protestors turned their attention to the country's political symbols, with statues and murals of ‘Bangabandhu’ Mujibur Rahman being vandalised. Mohammad Yunus Takes Charge of Bangladesh Following the departure of Sheikh Hasina, Nobel laureate Muhammad Yunus was appointed as Chief Adviser of the interim government.
