Sarbadaliya Chhatra Sangram Parishad (Bengali: সর্বদলীয় ছাত্র সংগ্রাম পরিষদ, lit.'All Party Student Action Committee') was a student organisation which played a pivotal role in the political history of Bangladesh, then known as East Pakistan. Formed amidst the backdrop of civil unrest and political dissatisfaction, this student-led organization became the voice of a burgeoning movement demanding greater autonomy for East Pakistan. Their activism was instrumental in the mass uprising of 1969, which not only challenged the military regime of Ayub Khan but also ignited the call for democracy. The efforts of these students were a significant precursor to the eventual independence of Bangladesh, highlighting the power of collective action and the impact of youth in shaping the course of a nation's history.[1][2][3]
