Bangladesh civil disobedience
News summary

In Bangladesh, student leaders have launched a nationwide civil disobedience campaign demanding justice following a deadly police crackdown that resulted in over 200 deaths during protests against civil service job quotas. The group, Students Against Discrimination, is calling for non-payment of taxes and utility bills, strikes by government workers, and halting overseas remittances starting Sunday. Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina, who has faced severe backlash during her 15-year rule, has expressed a willingness to meet with protest leaders but is also facing demands for her resignation and a public apology for the violence. The unrest began due to the reintroduction of a quota scheme that reserved a significant portion of government jobs, which has exacerbated the unemployment crisis among youth. As protests continue to grow, activists are also demanding the reopening of schools and universities that were closed during the unrest. The situation remains tense as large crowds filled the streets, rallying for further concessions from the government.
