At the same time, Bangladesh Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina expressed deep regret over the death of people in the violence and said that a judicial inquiry committee will be formed in this matter.
That’s why there is a ruckus
Actually, this protest in Bangladesh is to end reservation. Students are demanding to end reservation in government jobs for the children of soldiers who fought in the 1971 war. According to the report of Dhaka Tribune, a week ago, the Supreme Court of Bangladesh had banned this reservation, but PM Sheikh Hasina did not allow it to be implemented. Students are creating ruckus over this. At the same time, Hasina says that this decision is in her hands. 30% of the jobs in Bangladesh have been reserved for the children of war heroes. The anger of the students is aroused against this, because the students are demanding jobs on the basis of merit.
The students have been incited
At the same time, PM Sheikh Hasina said that these students have been provoked. She held some selfish elements responsible for this. She has also appealed to the students not to give the miscreants a chance to take advantage of the situation.
