Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's cult of personality

The cult of personality around Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, the first president of Bangladesh, was started during the premiership of Sheikh Hasina-led Awami League government. Mujibism initially began as the political ideology of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman, which was gradually converted into a cult of personality around him during the tenure of his daughter Sheikh Hasina, former prime minister of Bangladesh. After her fall following the July Revolution, his cult of personality was gradually dismantled.
