The interim government of Bangladesh said on Saturday that she will release his slate from Democratic Revision on 5 August, the one-year anniversary of the overthrow of the previous autocratic government.
The South Asian nation of around 170 million people has been in political unrest since a rebellion led by students had driven out the then Prim-Minister Sheikh Hasina on 5 August 2024, ending her 15-year-old rule.
Muhammad Yunus, the 85-year-old winner of the Nobel Prize Prize that leads the caregiver government as the main adviser until the elections are held, has said that he has inherited a “fully demolished” system of public administration.
Yunus previously promised to reveal a “big package” to revise democratic institutions.
But efforts to reach agreements have made slow progress because political parties are jostig for the power for the elections, planned for the beginning of 2026.
The government of Yunus has warned that political power is struggling, the risk runs the profit that have been made.

On July 29, Yunus said he worked to “build a broad national consensus on a renewed political system – one that delivers inclusive, participatory and credible elections”.
Yunus’s office said on Saturday that the “July proclamation” would be presented to the nation … in the presence of all political parties involved in the mass -uprising “.
The rule of Hasina saw widespread human rights violations, including the massive detention and extrajudicial murders on her political opponents.
Her government was also accused of politicizing courts and the civil service, organizing unilateral elections and dismantling democratic checks on its power.
Hasina, 77, fled to India, where she has tarted judicial orders to attend its continuous trial for accusations of crimes against humanity.
Protests started on July 1, 2024, in which university students called for reforms in a quota system for jobs in the public sector.
They culminated on August 5, 2024, when thousands of demonstrators stormed the Hasina palace when she escaped with a helicopter.
