Anti-quota protests swell across univs

Anti-quota protests intensified across Bangladesh universities after the Supreme Court upheld a High Court verdict reinstating the quota system in government jobs. Students blocked key intersections and highways, demanding the scrapping of quotas. Protesters announced fresh programs, including campus processions and class boycotts. The quota system, which reserved 56% of government jobs for various groups, was abolished in 2018 following student protests but recently reinstated by the High Court, sparking renewed demonstrations.
