It may be mentioned that in the July 2024 uprising, on July 18, in the Azampur area of Uttara in the capital, during the quota reform movement, Mugdho was distributing drinking water and biscuits among the protesters. A video of his words while distributing water—‘Does anyone need water, water?’—spread on social media and at that time created a huge stir in the movement. That very afternoon, at one stage of distributing water, he was shot and lost his life.
Mir Mugdho was born in Brahmanbaria but grew up in Uttara, Dhaka. After completing secondary and higher secondary at Uttara High School and College, he obtained a bachelor's degree in mathematics from Khulna University. Until his death, he was studying in a Professional MBA at Bangladesh University of Professionals (BUP).
