Bangladesh closes high schools and universities after massive student protests shake up government
Вставка

- Authorities in Bangladesh ordered schools and universities across the country to remain closed for an indefinite period. This decision came after six students were killed in protests over reforms to quotas for jobs in the public sector. On Tuesday, there was a significant increase in violence as protesters and pro-government student groups clashed, while police dispersed rallies with tear gas and rubber bullets. Education Ministry spokesman M. A. Khair told AFP news agency the shutdown order was issued for "the security of the students." Three of the victims died in the southern port city of Chattogram, more than 300 kilometers from the capital Dhaka, while two were killed in Dhaka and one in the northern district of Rangpur, police said. Authorities deployed the paramilitary Border Guard Bangladesh (BGB) in five major cities, including Dhaka and Chittagong, as protesters blocked some of the country's main highways.
What triggered the protests?
Protests erupted two weeks ago on university campuses as students demonstrated against civil service hiring policies. They want and end to a quota system that reserves more than half of civil service posts for specific groups, including children of veterans from the country's 1971 liberation war against Pakistan, women, people in the impoverished districts, ethnic minorities and people with disabilities. Critics say the system benefits children of pro-government groups that support Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who won her fourth consecutive election in January after a vote with no real opposition. Earlier this month, a Supreme Court bench ordered the reintroduction of job quotas, which were scrapped in 2018 in the face of massive student protests. However, an appeals court ordered a status quo on job quotas until early next month. The protesters called on the government to resolve the issue once and for all.

As a citizen of Bangladesh, I am requesting to save the students of our country. Our country's government attacks ordinary students out of political vendetta.
students shouldn't involved in politics inside the university and hijabi and bearded people have Madrasa. Let them study there or go to Afghanistan.

@@nadimulislamtonoy9604 because in India it’s worse. It’s caste based reservation, wherein the percentage of general population is 23% and OBC is 41%. No government would dare go against 41% of the masses
😢😢😢 ভাই কি আর বলবো 😢😢
As an Indian, I have empathy for these students. Reservation is also there in India and it has been killing merit for decades. I hope the Bangladeshi government listens to the demands of these students and come to a solution. Best wishes from India
What’s Reservation??
In Bangladesh, the senior officials at the administrative level are all unscrupulous. They tactfully do not place talented people in high positions so that their corruption is not hampered.

You don't know what's going on. They are a*tacking students, our media won't even portray it. Both pol*ce(armed) and Chatro league (dogs of the g*vt) are at*acking and ki*ling us. The other night students livestreamed being at*acked online, and asked for help. They were at*acked by Chatro league and po*ice officers were there but did nothing to save them. People caught it on camera, how pol*ce actually shot a guy named Abu Syed, student of English department in Rangpur. That's why they are going to universities with anetwork jammer while cutting electricity. Now nobody has proof. We don't know what happened to students of Dhaka university and Rajshahi university tonight, cause no network.

They call it a democracy? Anything you say that goes agains the interest of the ruling party, even if it benefits the all general people, will be called as a “Razakar” activity. So you have democracy as long as it fits their criteria. What a country 👏🏻
Posting whatever you want on Facebook against the government, comment pages filled with anti-government comments, where else can you find more democracy? In Iran, Raisi's government killed 500 anti-hijab protesters. You have survived because you got a relatively soft minded Prime Minister like Sheikh Hasina.

I am a Bangladeshi student, this Hasina government is destroying the lives of thousands of students in the name of quota. A student has to fight for 5 to 5 jobs after studying for 25 to 26 years. Without getting a government job, everyone tries to get a job in a private company, here they have to show 5 to 10 years of working experience, because they do not have working experience, they have to be harassed in private companies. Everyone is a prisoner to this Hasina government. We are free speech to this government. Hasina is an autocratic government.

Check out the awesomeness of the quote:⤵️ Bangladesh Railway will employ 25 people. Out of these 25 people, 20 people will be pet quota, and 2 freedom fighter quota, only 3 common people. In the name of these 3 people they will earn application fee money from lakhs of people. In the country of 18 million people, only 3 ordinary people will get a job! Think now.

In Bangladesh you can't marry if you don't have a government job @@christophercharles3169
@@christophercharles3169 It's not about money, those government jobs are power sources. Current ruling party wants just it's favored people to get these jobs so they can keep the masses in control. We are going through a North Korea style election for last 3 terms. Nobody goes to give vote because there is only one option in the ballot. So basically this quota system will put another nail in the coffin in our country's democracy.

News channels are talking about 56% quota only for first and second class jobs. It has a quota of over 80% in other jobs!
That’s called a caste system. Who wants a 3rd or 4th class job? Who can live on those wages?
Meanwhile in the U.S., students are violently protesting to *NOT* work in the government.
@@down-to-earth-mystery-school If you have even a 3rd or 4th class gov job (sure wages are low) but you can get extra privileges in govt. institutions and if you are lucky you will get an accommodation with really low rent (basically free) Govt. jobs are lucrative not because of the wages but because of the privileges that come with it.
@@down-to-earth-mystery-schoolyup. The way you all have been taught castes is very different from reality. In real life it’s the governments discriminating. As if it’s by design
It's not india, we don't have caste system, the most problematic ones are Freedom fighter quota which 30% or even more, so the grandchildren of freedom fighters are getting benefits cause their grandparents fought in 1971. 5% or 10% would be fine but 30%!
For some jobs, women get more quota than men. How's this not gender discrimination? As a woman I think we are equally capable,we don't need quota@@down-to-earth-mystery-school
