Quota protesters to march towards Bangabhaban tomorrow

The quota reform protesters have vowed to continue their movement until a logical and reasonable solution is reached to end the crisis created over 30% quota for freedom fighters and their family members in public jobs.

The protesters came up with the announcement during a press conference near the Central Library of Dhaka University (DU) on Saturday.

They also announced fresh programmes, including placing a memorandum to the president and bringing out a road march tomorrow to press home their demand for reform to the quota system in the government jobs.

For this purpose, students will march towards Bangabhaban at 11am tomorrow (July 14).

A case was filed on Friday (July 12) night against anti-quota protesters on charges of vandalising police vehicles, assaulting police officers, and attacking cops during the ongoing quota reform movement.

Earlier on June 5, the High Court declared the government's 2018 decision to cancel the 30 percent quota for freedom fighters' children illegal following a writ petition. As a result, the 30 percent quota was reinstated.
