A second political shooting in barely a week in Bangladesh under incompetent Mohammed Yunus. First anti-India and politically powerful Osman Hadi. Now National Citizen Party’s Khulna chief Motaleb Shikdar, right after NCP stated that mobs are trying to stop elections. Two men, different parties – but identical consequences: chaos, fear, and a convenient narrative waiting to be weaponised. Bangladeshi Jamaat smells blood and the deep state smells opportunity.
Unknown Gunmen of Bangladesh – Shooting and the Script
Just past noon in Khulna, unidentified assailants shot NCP divisional chief Motaleb Shikdar in broad daylight. Locals rushed him to Khulna Medical College Hospital, struggling between shock and resignation. The timing, location, silence of CCTV, and instantaneous online noise follow a familiar pattern.
When pictures of Shikdar’s bloodied head shall hit social media, panic and violence shall flow faster than facts.
Police confirmed the attack. No arrests or suspects or leads. No clarity. Exactly like Osman Hadi’s killing a few days earlier. Two shootings. Same narrative vacuum. A perfect storm for conspiracy, rage, and manufactured consent.
The Hidden Hand: Who Pulls the Trigger Without Touching the Gun?
In Yunus-era Bangladesh, every crisis seems to land at the feet of only two beneficiaries: Jamaat networks and the unelected deep-state technocrats clinging to power before February 2026 elections they know they cannot win.
Every assassination accelerates three predictable reactions:
- Deflect blame externally – preferably towards India
- Inflame Islamist sentiment – street mobs against Hindus and minorities
- Justify emergency rule and cancel elections
ISIS flags already wave in Dhaka rallies and demolition of symbols of the Independence Movement of Bangladesh. Ansar al-Islam openly issues threats using its Mufti Rahman sermonizes jihad against “India-backed conspirators” without proof. This Ansar al-Islam is an Al-Qaeda linked group.
And as panic spreads, every Hindu household will become an expendable collateral – Every Indian official or diplomat becomes a target of hate.
The deep state smiles as the chaos it shall unleash using Unknown Gunmen. A scared population is easier to control. A distracted international press is left voiceless as offices of prominent media houses were burnt. And an unstable Bangladesh becomes the perfect playground for Islamist militias.
The Coming Storm in Bangladesh
If Motaleb Shikdar dies, expect three things almost instantly:
- lynch mobs against Hindu and minorities in villages
- fresh propaganda blaming RAW for the shootings
- demands to “reclaim independence from India”
Because street violence in Bangladesh rarely stays political; it quickly becomes sectarian – Just like August 2024 – Just like December 2025.
The blueprint is brutal and simple. Kill a political leader until public age explodes. Then move radical mobs to target minorities while the UN looks the other way! And lastly, blame India gets while the Deep State strengthens emergency powers. The shooters may be unknown and the weapon might be untraced. But the beneficiaries are visible.
When bullets silence internal critics and media, the gunpowder fog hides the hand that fired them.
And in Yunus’ Bangladesh, every shot echoes the same warning: destabilize the country, demonize India, and let Islamist power fill the vacuum.
