[7] In 2024, during the Student–People's uprising, Rokeya Prachy expressed support for the government amidst allegations of repression and violence against the protesters by the Awami League administration.

Following the non-cooperation phase of the protests, on September 3, 2024,[9] screenshots purportedly linked to discussions within this WhatsApp group surfaced on social media, where some members suggested to ‘throw hot water on protesters’, which drew attention and criticism online.
