While some showed support for the student protesters against what's perceived as government overreach and brutality, others suggested deep-seated political motivations behind the protests, including allegations of foreign influence.

In a post on X, political analyst Savio Rodrigues said, “Like I said earlier, CIA puppet Muhammad Yunus will not be able to control the Islamic radicals in Bangladesh. CIA has always failed to understand the nature of the beast of Islamic radicalism. It will feed it thinking it can tame it but its nature is to devour and destroy. US has messed up Bangladesh. Student protests erupts once again on the streets of Dhaka.”
