Meghna
Alam embodies the unwavering spirit of young women in Bangladesh. Her
resilience in the face of a government intent on her destruction is
not just surprising but truly inspiring. She stands alone, fighting
the oppressive regime of Bangladesh, determined to prove her
innocence and clear her name of the false allegations against
her.
The
government, led by Mohammad Yunus, who seized power in an illegal
coup in August 2024, has proven to be the most vicious and vengeful
in the country's history. At the behest of a corrupt Saudi
Ambassador, Yunus's henchmen are persecuting a young, defenseless
woman who brought honor to the country and became a role model to a
generation of women. This is a gross injustice that cannot be
ignored.
I
first came to know of Meghna while watching a podcast in which she
was dressing up and speaking frantically in the backdrop of police
thumping on the entrance door of her apartment and threatening to
break it open. The tone in her voice indicated she was terrified, and
I thought of my daughter and felt the agony of her parents
immediately.
Meghna
was arrested at the behest of the former Ambassador, who was recalled
by his own country. Her personal belongings, such as her cell phone,
laptop, and even her passport, were seized, and she was terrorized.
This blatant injustice is a stark reminder of the oppressive regime
she is up against. She is still being persecuted relentlessly.
Meghna Alam, a beauty queen, is more than a pretty face; she is the National Director of Miss Earth, Chairperson of Miss Bangladesh, and a Political Educator. Her journey is a testament to the fact that true beauty is not merely skin deep; it is the fire in one's belly that shines light in the darkness, for the betterment of humanity. She now stands as a voice against the oppression of a regime that is the most corrupt and heinous. Her fight is a call for support, a testament to her courage and the belief that no one can deprive her of freedom, not for long.
Joy
Bangla.
