Nahid Islam, leader of students who played a major role in ousting Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's government last year have announced the formation of a new political faction which aims to shake up the political landscape in the South Asian country.

The National Citizen Party (NCP) will be headed by Nahid Islam itself.

Until recently, Islam served as an adviser to the interim government that took charge of Bangladesh after Sheikh Hasina's exit.

Addressing a public rally in the capital Dhaka on Friday, Islam said,

"We believe the July 2024 uprising initiated the fight towards a second republic. By writing a new democratic constitution, we must eliminate any possibility of future constitutional autocracy."
