Mir Mahbubur Rahman Snigdha, twin brother of the slain July uprising martyr Mir Mahfuzur Rahman (Mugdho) and newly joined BNP leader, has said that the name of Sheikh Hasina will keep haunting him until she is hanged.
On Tuesday (November 11), Snigdha made this remark in a post on his Facebook account.
In his post, he wrote, “The name born out of hatred in my heart is Sheikh Hasina. This feeling is not only mine but that of all the ordinary people of Bangladesh who have suffered oppression over the past 16 years. Until this killer Hasina is brought back and hanged on the soil of this country, her name will keep circling in my mind day and night, whether awake or in dreams.”
He added, “Whenever her name is mentioned, remember—it comes only from hatred. There will be no peace until this tyrant Sheikh Hasina is hanged.”
Recently, Mir Snigdha joined the Bangladesh Nationalist Party (BNP). Explaining his decision, he said he joined to work for the young generation and for those martyred and injured in the July movement through a larger political platform.
Speaking to the media after joining BNP, he said, “Through this major political party, I will be able to work more closely with the families of those martyred and injured in the July uprising. I’m also eager to contribute to several of the BNP’s 31-point state reform agenda.”
In another Facebook post, Snigdha mentioned that his main political goal is to represent the July movement at the highest level, become the voice of the martyrs and injured fighters, and ensure youth representation in politics.
He clarified that neither his brother Mugdho nor his family had been involved in politics. Calling Mugdho a “national treasure,” he said his decision to join politics was entirely personal and based on merit. He added that BNP’s acting chairman Tarique Rahman personally wanted him in the party to represent the youth — something Snigdha described as both an opportunity and a political responsibility.
