After days of widespread unrest and violent clashes between police and demonstrators in Bangladesh, the country’s top court has made a decision that could potentially bring an end to the chaos. The court has decided to scale back a controversial quota system for government job applicants, a move that is seen as a partial victory for the student protesters who have been demanding reform.
The quota system in question had reserved a certain percentage of government jobs for various groups, including women, ethnic minorities, and people with disabilities. However, critics argued that the system was unfair and led to discrimination against those who did not fall into these categories.
The protests that erupted in response to the quota system quickly escalated into violent clashes with police, resulting in the deaths of scores of people. The situation had become increasingly tense, with no immediate resolution in sight.
Now, with the court’s decision to scale back the quota system, there is hope that the demonstrations will come to an end. This move is likely to appease the protesters and address their concerns, at least to some extent.
It remains to be seen how the demonstrators will respond to this development and whether they will continue to push for further reforms. But for now, there is a glimmer of hope that the situation in Bangladesh will start to calm down.

Quota is not the issue anymore. This young generation shoved the quota system up HPM's bottom.

It's a matter of justice, not taking advantage.
Lives taken for quota.
Gave quota for survival.
You keep your quota.
Whose lives have been taken. Give them back their lives.
Can she (killer Hasina) bring back the lives of the students, including minors, who lost their lives?

Don't understand why would ask Indian journalist regarding Bangladeshi issues?
The government can cancel this verdict again if it wants. Then it is understood that this is a new trick of the government
please save the student and Bangladesh I need help I a student 😂
More then 300 students were killed.😢Not 100 students.
Dictator government has announced a two-day shutdown, how did the court sit in the closed day ?
It's hasina court. not supreme court
Its not a quota reformation protest anymore. Thousands have died. Hasina must take the responsibility and step down. The country has been cut off from the world as government decided to halt internet services since 18 July 2024 to cover up the mass murder by the authorities, which still continues. The number of deaths in the international media is only a fraction of the reality. I don't remember if Bangladesh has been in such dire straits before. At the same time, I don't remember seeing any generations of students braver than this. Please raise your voice just so Bangladesh heals sooner And to the people in the government, let's revisit the mantra – "of the people, by the people, for the people"
Sav Bangladesh 🇧🇩
Population growth is mainly reason for war
