Student protests over Bangladesh job quota leave at least 100 injured



Dozens of people have been injured by violence at student protests in Bangladesh.
Police fired tear gas and charged with batons after fighting broke out between rival groups near Dhaka on Monday.
Students have been protesting for two weeks, calling for an end to what they say are discriminatory quotas for public service jobs.
They say it favours supporters of the ruling party, and want a merit-based system instead.

The current movement is not an ordinary student movement. BNP Jamaat has hijacked the student movement. Bangladesh government has fulfilled the demand of students for quota reform long ago. Now those who are in the field, I think they are not students, they are terrorist militant BNP Jamaat Shibir workers.
