Outcome

Second Revolution (Bengali: দ্বিতীয় বিপ্লব) was a political hypothesis presented by the "founding father" of Bangladesh, Sheikh Mujibur Rahman.[1] The hypothesis included a series of reforms in the three pillars of a state: administrative, judiciary and legislative systems. The reforms were enacted through the fourth amendment to the constitution of Bangladesh. BaKSAL was formed as the decision making council to carry out the revolution.[2]

The 'revolution', as it was called by the Awami League leadership, ended with the assassination of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman during the 15 August 1975 Bangladesh coup d'état.
