Bangladesh's Attorney General, Mohammad Asaduzzaman, has called for major changes to the country's Constitution, including the removal of terms like secularism, socialism, and the designation of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman as the "Father of the Nation." He argues these changes would better reflect the country's predominantly Muslim population and democratic ethos. Asaduzzaman criticized the 2011 15th Amendment for undermining democracy and called for a referendum system to ensure democratic accountability.
