Bangladesh new currency note: Bangladesh has started issuing new bank notes from Sunday (June 1, 2025). These new currency notes will no longer have a photo of former Prime Minister and founder father Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. Instead, pictures of Hindu and Buddhist temples were given attention. Sheikh Mujibur Rahman is also the father of Sheikh Hasina.

After Sheikh Hasina was out of power and after the political crisis in the country, Bangladesh Bank announced last year that he would work towards issuing new notes. Speaking to news agency AFP, Bangladesh Bank spokesman Arif Hussain Khan said that the new currency will focus on displaying the natural landscape and historical sites of Bangladesh.

Different price not notes will be released

He said, “Under the new series and design, there will be no human photo on the notes, but will be displayed natural landscape and traditional sites.” According to the AFP report, bank notes will include the artwork of Hindu, Buddhist temples, late Zainul Abedin and National Shaheed Memorials, which pay tribute to those killed during the 1971 liberation war.

Bangladesh Bank has issued three different price notes. Khan said, “The new notes will be issued from the headquarters of the central bank and later will be issued from other offices across the country. Note notes of different prices will be issued in stages.”

When did the currency of Bangladesh changed?

This is not the first time Bangladesh has changed its currency. After being independent of Pakistan in 1972, the country changed its currency. The map of the newly built country was printed on these notes. After these notes, a photo of Awami League leader Sheikh Mujibur Rahman was printed on the new price class notes.

The country has a bad condition since the formation of Mohammad Yunus government in Bangladesh. This country is being infamous around the world due to targeting minorities on one side in Bangladesh. At the same time, now Bangladesh is suffering a big loss due to the decision to remove the pictures of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman from the country’s currency Taka.

The decision of Mohammad Yunus, the chief advisor of the interim government of Bangladesh, is also harming the central bank of the country. The condition is that the currency of about 15,000 crore Taka in Bangladesh has been out of circulation, due to which the country is suffering a big loss.

Government is destroying things related to Mujibur Rahman

The government of Mohammad Yunus, who has been formed with the support of radical elements in Bangladesh since the Sheikh Hasina government, wants to destroy things related to Mujibar Rahman, who is called Bangabandhu, with the support of radical elements. Under this, the prevalence of notes has also been stopped.

Crisis in the country due to not printing new notes

Due to fear of radical government, bank officials are not ready to say anything. Business in the market has come to a standstill due to lack of notes. Due to lack of money in banks, people are not getting cash. In the beginning of April 2025, the Younus government suddenly decided that all those notes and coins would be excluded from circulation, which have pictures of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman. The government decided to close the notes, but due to non -printing new currency, a big crisis has arisen in the country.

Bangladesh Bank says that printing of new notes will begin in May. In such a situation, many questions are arising that when the notes will be printed and how long will they come in the markets.
