<guid>https://counterpointbd.com/What-Legacy-She-Left-for-Us</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Her entry into politics in the early 1980s was a response to national crisis, not personal ambition. She became more than a political leader. She became a symbol -- of democratic resilience, of refusal to capitulate, and of the belief that political legitimacy must come from the people, not from force. ]]></description>

<title>Tarique Rahman’s Return and the 1972 Expectation Trap</title>
<link>https://counterpointbd.com/tarique-rahmans-return</link>
<guid>https://counterpointbd.com/tarique-rahmans-return</guid>
<description><![CDATA[ Tarique Rahman’s return is undeniably historic. But history alone does not guarantee success. The comparison with 1972 is not about personalities -- it is about the structural burden placed on returning leaders in moments of national uncertainty. ]]></description>

<title>Is India Bound to Extradite Sheikh Hasina?</title>
<link>https://counterpointbd.com/After-the-Death-Verdict</link>

It hinges on interpretation -- and political will. ]]></description>
