विकल्प

• 1975

• 1976

• 1977

• 1979

Answer 1

1975

Explanation:

Bangladesh's constitution expresses faith in secularism, democracy, and socialism. However, in 1975, Sheikh Mujib amended the constitution to change the form of government from parliamentary to presidential. He also outlawed all political parties except his own, the Awami League. This resulted in disagreements and tensions. In a dramatic and tragic turn of events, he was assassinated in August 1975 during a military uprising. Ziaur Rahman, the new military ruler, formed his own Bangladesh National Party and won elections in 1979.
