Background of the Movement
The 15-year Awami misrule, vote-rigging, corruption, murder, injustice, and oppression had created a negative reaction in the public mind. Protests began regarding the reinstatement of the quota system in government jobs. The movement, which started peacefully, turned violent. It spread across the country as a movement against discrimination.
How He Became a Martyr
On August 5, 2024, after Hasina's tyrannical rule ended, people took to the streets in victory processions. While the procession was passing in front of Sonaimuri Police Station, the police fired on the crowd. Tanvir Hossain Mahmud was in the procession and was martyred on the spot due to police gunfire.
Funeral and Burial
The martyr's namaz-e-janaza was held in his village, and he was buried there.
